Food Safety
The Highest Food Safety Standards
We take great care and pride in delivering the highest quality raspberries, sustainably and exclusively crafted for frozen perfection. Our frozen raspberries are not a by-product—they are specifically grown and harvested with the intent to be frozen, ensuring they deliver the freshest flavor and highest nutrition possible.
Safety is our top priority. Our raspberries are machine-harvested and air-chilled with minimal handling, maintaining the highest food safety standards while preserving their quality. Every step, from seed to bag, is carefully managed to ensure that you receive only the best.
Through advanced breeding science and cutting-edge air-freezing technology, we ensure that only the finest raspberries make it to your freezer. This innovation guarantees that you’re getting the best in both flavor and nutrition, while also benefiting from the long shelf life of frozen raspberries, which helps reduce food waste and lessen the environmental impact.
U.S. raspberry processors are committed to food safety, employ country-of-origin labeling, product traceability, and daily due diligence in good agricultural practices. Testing is performed regularly to ensure that every batch meets the highest safety standards, so you can enjoy raspberries straight from the bag without worry.
With the implementation of measures within the Food Safety Modernization Act, the U.S. food supply remains one of the safest in the world, with stringent requirements from seed to fork that create even greater assurances. The Washington Red Raspberry Commission supports the efforts of all professional organizations as they work to assist growers and processors to ensure a high-quality and safe product for consumers.
Growers and processors of frozen raspberries have very specific quality standards that must be met for the various product forms. They take great care and pride in delivering the highest quality raspberries possible to their respective customers, which will ultimately deliver the flavor and nutrition for consumers to enjoy.
Consumers can be assured that frozen raspberries are a safe, nutritious and convenient fruit that can be shared with family and friends.
