A COMPANY
FRENCH
Based in the heart of Perche
One of FRUITOFOOD's greatest strengthslies in the exclusivity of our manufacturing process. The whole fruits are heated at low temperature and under vacuum, in order to be emptied of their water. This process, carried out at our production site in Fontaine-Simon,allows maximum respect for the natural qualities of the fruit.
Thanks to our professionalism and our mastery throughout the supply chain up to processing, we ensure tasty products with preserved aromas.
