Grupo Bafar
The products that are sold in large presentations for Own Stores and wholesale of beef, pork, poultry and organ meats come in frozen boxes with Individual Quick Freezing (IQF) technology; which is used in the food processing industry and allows the freezing process to be carried out in just a couple of minutes.
Short freezing prevents the formation of large ice crystals in the product cells and as a consequence, the product maintains its shape, color, odor and taste after thawing.
Likewise, the IQF technology allows to maintain the integrity of the box and to prevent the individual pieces from sticking together and there is no leakage, keeping the product completely dry.
