About us
Co-owners, founders, and brothers, Danny and Billy Jones, are no strangers to the produce business. They are 2nd generation shippers having learned their hard work ethic and integrity from their dad, Dallas Jones.
Originally from Washington, IN, Danny and Billy relocated with their parents to Clermont as children and thus began their introduction to the produce business.
In 2003, Danny and Billy along with their sons opened the doors to Sunstate Produce. Since then, Sun State has seen tremendous growth and is well known in the watermelon industry.
