Latvia-based Pure Food specializes in the production of fruit and berry preparations for bakeries, confectioners, ice cream, yogurts and desserts. The company’s expertise in sourcing and cleaning of berries, aseptic industrial packaging, and modern production techniques will bring synergies and vertical integration to Puratos.
