Certifications
are our brand.

Guaranteeing the certifications of the products we make is a way of living. For everybody working here, our customer satisfaction is the engine that pushes us forward.

That is why we have developed a system that controls all key processes through which we ensure to deliver products with the highest quality and food safety standards as required by markets internationally. Frugo complies not only with Mexican laws, but also with the relevant regulations of countries we export to such as those from the FDA, USDA and EPA.

COMMITTED TO QUALITY

Our vegetables are selected and cut based on our customer specifications; they undergo a cleaning and sanitization process after which they are pre-cooked in order to prolong their shelf life for up to 24 months. Finally, they are submitted to Individual Quick Freezing (IQF) which preserves their characteristics in terms of texture, nutrition values and flavor. All our products undergo rigorous Microbiologic and Physicochemical analyses before shipping them to our customers.

Our products do not contain conservatives, added flavors or colors. They are Natural.

All our fields are BUMA (Best Usage and Management of Agrochemicals) certified, (SENASICA certification), authorized by COFEPRIS and the California League, endorsed by the United States EPA.
