Brussel Sprout Force Majeure

Brussel Sprout Force Majeure

Tues, Nov 25th, 2025

Dear Ole Tyme Customers:

We have received formal notice from our supplier, confirming that current Brussels sprout conditions qualify as an Act of God event. As a result, we are invoking Force Majeure on Brussels sprouts effective immediately. This is an industry-wide declaration driven by significant crop failure and circumstances beyond normal control.

What to Expect:

  • Orders may experience delays, reductions, or substitutions with limited advance notice.
  • Supply will remain extremely tight through mid-December.
  • Some improvement is anticipated in January as Mexican production increases.

If you have any questions, please reach out to your Sales Representative.

Thanks,

Ole Tyme Produce
