About the Brand
In 2004, John Tentomas founded Nature’s Touch in his basement, with his cousin Philip. They packed their first order by hand at a small rented room in a warehouse. Since then, John has dedicated himself to finding the best quality foods. He travels the world with his team, visiting farms and inspecting facilities.
We focus on finding the best products and are committed to quality at every production stage. We grow our business according to three key pillars: trust, quality and supply. We work with suppliers and retailers who we trust to provide the highest-quality products for our customers, and we ensure extensive supply capabilities that are second to none, all year long.
On any given day, you’ll find us practicing what we preach, by eating our frozen fruit straight out of the bag.

FAQ
- Not at the present time, unfortunately. However, they are always looking at packaging technologies that will allow them to preserve the quality of their product and be fully recyclable. Their main concern is to deliver quality products and avoid ice build-up, dehydration and clumping, and therefore, their bags are made with two materials glued together, in order to provide a full protective barrier for their frozen fruits and veggies.
- Fruits and vegetables don’t naturally contain gluten. Their facilities do not handle any products that contain gluten.
- Some fruits and veggies need pesticide application in order to protect them from harmful predators (e.g.: bacteria, fungi, bugs, mold) that will simply destroy the fruit (either while it is growing or after it is harvested).
- There is no difference in the nutritional value of a conventional fruit vs a tested for pesticide residue fruit. The main difference is that they guarantee that there is no pesticide residue on the tested for pesticide residue fruits, whereas conventional fruits might have pesticide residue that is within the limits approved by the regulating authorities.
- Every batch of fruits and veggies is tested twice for pesticide residue – once at the farm prior to bulk loading, and again at their facility prior to packaging! At Nature’s Touch, their goal is to limit your exposure to pesticide residues when enjoying their frozen fruit and that is why their highly qualified team uses latest generation equipment to test for a minimum of 260 of the most commonly known pesticides. There are no regulations governing how tested for pesticide residue products must be grown, but they adhere to an international standard for testing pesticide residue: www.AOAC.org.
- Although the use of pesticides is highly regulated in Organic Agriculture, some specific pesticides are permitted.
