DONNA, TX – Kingdom Fresh Farms recently announced that its tomatoes have been non-GMO Project Verified. Beginning this spring, consumers will be able to purchase Kingdom Fresh tomatoes with the assurance of independently verified non-GMO compliance testing.
“This is very exciting for us,” said Guillermo Martinez, General Manger at Kingdom Fresh Farms, in a press release. He added, “We choose to get our products Non-GMO Project Verified because we respect the consumer’s right to know what is in the food they are eating, and it is a way of affirming our commitment to produce fresh and healthy tomatoes and vegetables.”
Kingdom Fresh obtained its non-GMO certification from The Non-GMO Project, a non-profit organization that conducts independent testing, auditing, and verification of commercial produce. According to its website, The Non-GMO Project has adopted consensus-based best practices in alignment with European Union regulations. The Non-GMO Project only confers Non-GMO Project labeling to fresh produce that passes its rigorous verification process.
