From the Earth’s Prime Growing Regions

Reliable, Global Fruit Sourcing

At Brothers International, our strength lies in our decades-long relationships with premier growers worldwide. Because we are not limited by geography, we source every fruit from its optimal growing region—whether that includes strawberries from the Americas, mangoes from tropical belts, or apples from the finest orchards.

By ensuring fruit is harvested at peak ripeness and processed immediately via sublimation (freeze-drying), we lock in the natural flavor, vibrant color, and nutrition. This robust, global supply chain guarantees your private label brand receives consistent premium quality, reliable year-round availability, and protection against regional crop fluctuations.

From the World’s Best Farms

Farm-to-Pouch Quality & Taste

The best private label freeze-dried fruit snacks start with the best raw ingredients. That’s why we travel the globe to source exceptional fruits from the specific regions where they grow best. By controlling the quality from the orchard directly to the freeze-drying facility, we ensure that every batch of your private label fruit maintains its satisfying crisp texture and naturally sweet flavor without the need for artificial additives or preservatives.

Global Sourcing & Supply Chain Resiliency:
Maintaining a reliable, high-volume supply of premium freeze-dried fruits requires an agile, multi-continental agricultural footprint coupled with advanced lyophilization infrastructure. Because the quality of the finished freeze-dried fruit is dictated entirely by the cellular integrity of the raw produce, processing begins with fruit harvested at peak physiological maturity.

Brothers International coordinates an audited global sourcing network across premier agricultural basins; balancing harvest windows between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. By sourcing pome and stone fruits across the Americas and Eastern Europe (Chile, Mexico, and Poland), bananas from Central America (Costa Rica and Ecuador), and tropicals like mango and pineapple from South America and Southeast Asia, we insulate retail brand owners and industrial co-manufacturers against localized crop freezes, severe droughts, and seasonal shortages.

The primary logistical advantage of freeze-dried fruit lies in its extreme shipping efficiency and shelf stability, contrasted with its acute sensitivity to ambient humidity. Through vacuum sublimation, water content is reduced to under 3% by weight, dropping physical density while concentrating natural fruit sugars, nutrients, and colors. This allows Brothers International to optimize freight payloads, moving dry, lightweight fruit in food-grade, multi-layer moisture-barrier bulk cases or hermetically sealed master cartons without the energy-intensive overhead of continuous frozen reefers.

Through structured multi-quarter forward contracting and aggregate volume purchasing across our specialized consumer and ingredient divisions, we negotiate predictable freight tariffs and secure production allocations, shielding private label buyers from ocean freight volatility and spot-market commodity spikes.

Quality Assurance & Technical Compliance:

Every production lot of private label and bulk freeze-dried fruit distributed by Brothers International undergoes rigorous physical and analytical testing to ensure crisp texture, accurate piece geometry, and long-term shelf stability. Because freeze-dried fruit is exceptionally hygroscopic (readily absorbing moisture from ambient air), our technical laboratories monitor critical moisture parameters.

Foreign material mitigation and physical purity are enforced through multi-stage in-line detection systems. Sliced and diced produce streams pass under high-resolution optical sorters that scan for color variations, residual calyx leaves, and stem fragments. Finished dry product passes through multi-frequency metal detectors and dual-energy X-ray inspection systems to guarantee total freedom from ferrous, non-ferrous, and stainless-steel particulate, as well as calcified stone fragments. Furthermore, because freeze-drying removes water via sublimation without high-temperature thermal baking, the raw fruit’s natural vitamins (especially heat-labile Vitamin C), carotenoids, and anthocyanins remain structurally intact, delivering vibrant color and authentic flavor without artificial colors, added sugars, or chemical preservatives.

Global food safety and clean-label regulatory compliance form the cornerstone of our turnkey private label manufacturing. All freeze-drying and clean-room packaging facilities within our network operate under strict Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) benchmarks, maintaining current certifications under SQF or BRCGS. Packaging operations utilize nitrogen flushing and high-barrier metallized films (EVOH or aluminum foil laminates) with moisture vapor transmission rates (MVTR) approaching zero, ensuring a verified 18- to 24-month commercial shelf life.

Each shipment arrives with a complete technical documentation packet, including lot-specific Certificates of Analysis (COA), multi-residue pesticide screens, heavy metal screening via ICP-MS, Kosher and Halal certifications, Non-GMO Project Verification, and USDA National Organic Program (NOP) transaction paperwork.

Your Production Partner

Private Label Freeze-Dried Fruit F.A.Q.

As a globally integrated freeze-dried fruit supplier with more than 25 years of specialized agricultural experience, Brothers International eliminates the supply chain and manufacturing risks associated with high-end fruit snacks. We provide a complete turnkey solution: from sourcing premium Individually Quick Frozen (IQF) fruit at peak physiological maturity to industrial lyophilization and automated clean-room packaging.

By partnering with us, consumer brands leverage our aggregate global purchasing power, insulating their product lines against regional crop freezes, seasonal shortages, and spot-market price volatility. Our fully managed private label freeze-dried fruit programs are executed in GFSI-recognized (BRC/SQF) facilities, ensuring that your store brand or retail line delivers uncompromising food safety, verified physical piece integrity, and authentic fruit crunch backed by an uninterrupted supply chain.

Beyond our core position as a bulk freeze-dried fruit supplier, Brothers International operates state-of-the-art co-manufacturing and contract packaging suites engineered for high-volume commercial production. We offer custom dry blending, precision sizing, and multi-ingredient formulation – enabling co-manufacturers to seamlessly integrate crisp freeze-dried fruits into breakfast cereals, granolas, trail mixes, and snack bar matrices.

To protect ultra-low-moisture ingredients, our packaging lines operate in positive-pressure, climate-controlled clean rooms with strict relative humidity (RH) controls. Our high-speed packaging equipment features multi-head computer combination weighers, automated vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) baggers, pre-formed pouch machines, and automated multi-pack cartoning. Every packaging cycle incorporates in-line active nitrogen flushing to achieve residual oxygen levels below 1.5%, backed by continuous checkweighers, multi-frequency metal detection, and dual-energy X-ray inspection to guarantee complete foreign material elimination.

  • Freeze-Dried Fruit: Processed via lyophilization (vacuum sublimation) under extreme negative pressure. Freshly frozen fruit moisture transitions directly from solid ice to water vapor without passing through a liquid phase. This preserves the fruit’s microscopic 3D cellular skeleton, natural geometric shape, vivid pigmentation, and heat-labile vitamins (such as Vitamin C). The resulting ingredient exhibits an ultra-low moisture content and a signature airy, melt-in-the-mouth crispness.

  • Traditionally Dried Fruit: Processed via convective hot-air drying tunnels or belt dehydrators. Heat evaporates moisture, which collapses internal cellular walls and condenses natural sugars and fibers into a dense, chewy texture with a higher moisture profile (typically 12% to 18%). As an end-to-end freeze-dried fruit supplier, we help brand owners select the optimal format based on target water activity, mouthfeel, and inclusion stability.

Freeze-dried fruit is exceptionally hygroscopic, meaning it will rapidly pull ambient moisture out of surrounding air or adjacent food matrices if not properly engineered. When formulating for co-manufacturing inclusions (such as ready-to-eat cereals or snack bars), we calibrate finished products to strict water activity thresholds, preventing moisture migration that could soften the fruit or make cereal flakes soggy. For our packaged private label freeze-dried fruit lines, we specify specialized multi-layer metallized film laminates (such as foil or EVOH barrier substrates) engineered with near-zero Moisture Vapor Transmission Rates (MVTR) and Oxygen Transmission Rates (OTR). Combined with our controlled-humidity packaging suites and active nitrogen flushing, our barrier packaging protects cellular crispness and guarantees an 18- to 24-month ambient shelf life.

We offer comprehensive, end-to-end commercialization services to transition your private label freeze-dried fruit brand from concept to nationwide retail distribution. Our packaging engineering team assists with substrate selection, structural pouch sizing, and custom dieline generation.

We review your artwork files to ensure strict adherence to FDA 21 CFR food labeling regulations, including: standardized Nutrition Facts panel generation, ingredient deck declarations, net weight placement, and claim verifications (such as “100% Real Fruit,” “Gluten-Free,” and “No Added Sugars”). Our turnkey process allows retail brands to launch shelf-ready products without needing in-house packaging engineers or regulatory attorneys.

Yes. Modern consumers scrutinize ingredient decks for total purity. We supply both conventional and certified USDA Organic for select private label freeze-dried fruit, supported by comprehensive National Organic Program (NOP) transaction paperwork. Our freeze-dried fruits are 100% natural, containing zero added sugars, artificial sweeteners, carrier starches, sulfur, or chemical preservatives. We also maintain Non-GMO Project Verification, Kosher, and Halal certifications. Furthermore, our packaging and blending facilities operate under strict allergen-control programs, enforcing physical room segregation, dedicated lines, and allergen-swab-verified sanitation protocols to support certified allergen-free and clean-label front-of-pack claims.
