In January, Agricola El Nazario, a member of our Veggies from Mexico community, received a SMETA audit, to determine compliance with Social Responsibility related topics.

The company has had this certification since 2018, which endorses its commitment to offer the best living conditions to its collaborators.

SMETA is on the most widely used audit in the world. Companies use SMETA certification to understand and improve working conditions and environmental performance in their business and supply chain.

It is an audit that helps you understand labor, health, and safety standards, environmental performance, and ethics within your operations or at a supplier’s site. The SMETA audit is designed to help protect workers from unsafe conditions, overwork, discrimination, low wages, and more.

Agricola El Nazario is a family business that seeks to offer the best quality and freshness products 365 days a year, so they have their agricultural production strategically located to ensure the supply of our products. They currently market in Torreon, Coahuila, and Mexico City; as well as in McAllen, San Antonio, Texas, and Nogales, Arizona. Their main products are Roma tomato and Azulan cucumber under the brands 5 Reyes and Nazario.
