LEAMINGTON, ON - The R.E.A.CH. International Greenhouse Competitions wrapped up again this year with a host of winners across the board.

“We are proud to take home this award for our Bramato tomato. These tomatoes are flavor-forward and present a deep, rich color that really helps to diversify our customer’s produce departments,” Chris Mastronardi, President/CEO, tells me. 

The company is introducing new packaging for the Bramato as well, with newly designed 12 oz and 16 oz trays that offer delicious recipes straight from Double Diamond's cookbook.
