Our responsibility and commitment to consistent food safety and quality leaded us in 2008, to made “La Asunción” packing house to be recognized as the first Latin American packing house to be accredited as BRC 5.0 (British Retail Consortium) and we have been re certified in the subsequent BRC standards every year since then with Grade A.
We are keen self-surveyors of our packaging materials, storage (cold chain management) and distribution processes in order to comply with strict international standards, but mainly, our customers' needs.

Since 2013 our packing house and all our farms are “Global GAP GRASP” certified, as a reminder that all our operations have to be driven with Respect to the: human rights, fair working conditions, ecosystem and promotion of biodiversity, sustainable agriculture practices and betterment of the local impact.
