The panel valued the brand’s ambition but expressed reservations regarding scalability, market distinction, and company profitability. Although the authenticity and product quality were commendable, the company needed a stronger USP to distinguish out in a very competitive food sector. Still, Barosi is dedicated to furthering natural and traditional food options using its current devoted client base and investigating new prospects to increase its influence in the organic food sector.
