Among the products that were given top honors, Campari® led the way with an incredible evaluation from the ITQI.
“What a way to celebrate Campari’s 20th anniversary,” shared CEO Paul Mastronardi. “For 20 years, we’ve been researching to see what could top Campari®, and we’ve yet to find anything that could replace it as the tomato lover’s tomato. This achievement truly solidifies our dedication to flavor and quality, and represents our passion behind Campari®.”
Other awarded products include SUNSET® WOW™ Berries, which were introduced to the Midwest this past year as a flavorful, local strawberry to get foodies through the winter.
Products are judged based on a number of factors including looks, smell, texture, and of course, taste. Several hundred food and beverage brands participate in the ITQI Awards each year. Other award-winning SUNSET® products include Kumato™, Zima™, One Sweet™, Angel Sweet™, and Y.E.L.O.™, Campari® with a little extra sunshine. “We warmly congratulate Mastronardi Produce on this achievement,” commented Christian de Bauw, Manager Partner at ITQI. “The company should be proud to market products that are so valued for their superior taste.”
