Reiter Affiliated Companies is one of the world's largest berry producers, growing strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries across seven countries.
Reiter Affiliated Companies (RAC) operates one of the largest berry production networks on the planet - strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries - spanning the United States, Canada, Mexico, Peru, Portugal, Morocco, and China. Founded in 1868, the company's agricultural footprint means its attack surface isn't just the corporate network. It's the full stack: industrial control systems managing irrigation and cold-chain logistics, supply chain platforms tracking perishable goods across borders, and the data flows connecting field operations to distribution partners worldwide.
The threat model for a global agribusiness of this scale is wide. Think IoT sensors on remote farms, third-party integrations with logistics providers, and the operational technology that keeps millions of pounds of produce moving. RAC's cybersecurity posture has to cover IT and OT convergence, protect sensitive employee and operational data, and defend against supply chain compromise - all without the luxury of downtime during harvest cycles.
RAC operates under a "People Come First" mission, with core values of honesty, fairness, and respect. The company runs philanthropy programs including the VIDA initiative and Berry Donations. For security professionals, the draw is the complexity: defending a 150+ year-old operation that now spans continents, blending legacy agricultural infrastructure with modern digital systems under constant operational pressure.
