From sourcing responsibly wild-harvested açaí to organically grown dragon fruit, we understand the need to be stewards for the environment. We take a long-term approach with all of the decisions we make to build a sustainable future that will last for generations to come.
We start by sourcing açaí berries that are tree ripened and ready to be processed at the peak of freshness. Product is tested, gently processed and immediately frozen to ensure consistency across the board. Quality control from the tree to the bowl.
Food safety is paramount in our production facility. Organic, Kosher, Non-GMO. We’ve got it covered and run in a FDA approved and third-party audited production facility. We test every production batch to be sure all the product meets tight quality specifications. All the good stuff and nothing else.
As we use the gifts of the Amazon region, we are mindful to give back to support the people and environment. Especial Fruits proudly supports the Movement of Women of the Belém Island, in the native Portuguese, Movimento das Mulheres das Ilhas de Belém (MMIB).
Since 1998 on the island of Cotijuba, the MMIB has been working to promote women’s rights, environmental impacts of sustainability, and the social development of Cotijuba and surrounding islands.
By crafting jewelry from the seeds of the Acai berry, the MMIB has led initiatives to creating a library and reading room, a digital inclusion center to provide computer access and education, and activity organization for the elderly. Especial Fruits supports the MMIB by buying and distributing their handmade Acai jewelry.

Sometimes you just need to give the world what it asks for. The market asked for a direct line to amazing foods and we decided to give it to them. With a team of experienced agricultural experts and over 15 years of industry experience guiding us, Especial Fruits was born.
