Sunset Produce Takes Top 6 Awards at Hottest Tomato Competition!

I am proud to be working with sunset produce and am so excited about their hottest tomato awards! Here’s a little about the awards:

As a part of the annual Tomato Capital of Canada Event presented by REACH International in Leamington, Ontario, Mastronardi took top honors with its SUNSET® tomatoes for the following categories:

  • Best Cocktail Tomato – Campari®
  • Best Roma Tomato – SUNSET® Romana
  • Best Bite Size Tomato – Splendido™
  • Best Specialty Tomato – Zima™
  • Best Overall Tomato – Zima™
  • The People’s Choice Award – Zima™

    • “We are extremely proud that our gourmet tomatoes captured all the top awards. Our company was built on flavor & quality and these awards help further promote that,” stated Paul Mastronardi, President. “It is great to see that our new Zima™ grape tomato won Best Specialty, Best Overall Tomato, and most importantly, the People’s Choice Award. This seriously sweet orange grape tomato packs an incredible punch when it comes to tomato flavor, so I am especially pleased to see it win these key awards,” said Mastronardi.

    The Campari®, Romana, Splendido™, and Zima™ tomatoes are just a few of the more than 100 different varieties of tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers that Mastronardi grows and markets under its nationally recognized SUNSET® brand of produce.
