Since the beginning of Les vergers Boiron, there was a passion for fruit.<br />

The Boiron family, originally from the Ardèche region of France, started<br />

a fruit trading company in 1942. A few years later, business took off and<br />

the Boiron Frères company rapidly developed. It followed the move<br />

from Les Halles in Paris to the Rungis market in 1969. Pierre Boiron, the<br />

founder's son, then launched a major innovation. Dessert and pastry<br />

chefs were looking for practical and consistent use of products all-year<br />

round. The CEO of Les vergers Boiron then created a fruit processing<br />

activity - heat-treated specifically to each fruit, then deep frozen - which<br />

is the best technique still today to keep the flavor, texture and freshness<br />

of the fruit intact. Professionals enthusiastically welcomed these<br />

ready-to-use fruit purees.<br />

In 2005, Alain Boiron, Pierre's son, took over at Les vergers Boiron and<br />

in 2010, all the activities moved to an ultra-modern site in Valence,<br />

Drôme. Today, there are over 50 flavors of frozen fruit purées available<br />

all of which are 100% all-natural, GMO-free and have no preservatives,<br />

additives, or thickening agents. Les vergers Boiron experts select only<br />

the finest varieties of fruit from the best regions worldwide. Then these<br />

fruits, harvested at maturity, undergo a unique blending technique<br />

which guarantees product consistency throughout the seasons.<br />

“76 years ago, my grandfather founded the company Boiron Frères SA.<br />

As the inventors of frozen fruit puree, we have continued to innovate by<br />

developing our range to support pastry chefs, cooks, and bartenders<br />

from all over the world daily with excellent fruit solutions. Aware of<br />

what a privilege it was to take charge of the company in 1990, I continue<br />

the expansion of the business with passion. Based in the heart of the<br />

orchards of Valence, France, the company now has a subsidiary in the<br />

United States, an office in Hong Kong and shines alongside great chefs<br />

in more than 80 countries. To have exceptional fruit solutions, you can<br />

count on our unique expertise in blending and processing fruits, on the<br />

producers who provide us with fruits of rare quality, on our network of<br />
