ALWAYS ORGANIC. ALWAYS FAIR TRADE CERTIFIED.
From the beginning, SAMBAZON was as much about giving back to the community of farmers and protecting the biodiversity of the Amazon as it was providing this delicious, nutritious food to the world.
By creating our own vertical supply chain of Certified Organic and Fair Trade Açaí, we were able to do all of this, establishing a direct connection between our farmers and you along the way.
The Benefits of Certified Organic Açaí
Açaí may be hard to pronounce, but it’s many benefits make it easy to love. Wild harvested by hand from the rainforest’s palm trees for centuries, this purple berry is thought to be the most powerful superfood in the Amazon. It’s packed with free radicals-fighting antioxidants and healthy omegas 3, 6, and 9, low in naturally occurring sugars—and loaded with flavor! Plus, we have the best Açaí in the world.
The Journey of the Açaí Berry
The Açaí berry is thought to be the most powerful of over 200 fruits found in the Amazon.
Not only does it contain bountiful nutritional value, SAMBAZON also helps to protect the Amazon Rainforest and its rich biodiversity by working directly with family farmers who wild-harvest the Açaí from tall palm trees. Learn about the impact you make when you purchase Açaí from SAMBAZON here.
