Company

The mission of Austria’s Finest, Naturally® is to seek out unique all natural food products with exceptional flavor. For us, the term "all-natural" has a very simple definition: a food item that derives its flavor and properties through naturally occurring processes or with minimal human manipulation/processing". This means that none of the products contain aroma, color, or flavor enhancers. The result is food pure and natural the way God intended for it to be enjoyed.

To achieve this goal, Austria’s Finest, Naturally® works with a network of predominantly family run farms (over 400). Each farmer ensures that his products are the purest possible. The Cooperative of pumpkin farmers retains an independent team of chemists, botanists, and biologists to regularly inspect their soil, seeds, and oil for purity and potency and advise them on responsible ways to overcome the environmental challenges that occur in today’s world. The farmers who have elected to also be members of the Austrian Organic Association carry the extra "Bio" seal on their products.

In 1998 the governments of the European Union began an initiative to identify and protect distinct agricultural products. Only a few select specialties were granted this protection, and the Steiermark’s oil was one. In accordance with Article 5 "Rules and regulations" (EEC) Nr. 2081/92 only 100% pure pumpkin extra-virgin seed oil derived from pumpkins grown in the restrictive traditional growing regions is entitled to carry the coveted "Seal of Authenticity". Each bottle of Authentic Pumpkin Seed Oil carries a ggA number that identifies the grower and mill that produced it.

Aside from our renowned food products, we also have our "Solingen Shop" that features outstanding products from this world famous "Blade City". Like for our food products, we only work with distinct manufacturers who offer exceptional products.

While this page is configured for direct sales to consumers, HELCO, LTD is primarily a business to business enterprise and welcomes inquiries from retailers, distributors, food service, manufacturers and other trade companies that are interested in including our products in their program or feel that we can assist them in sourcing products.

Sincerely,

John Paul Cook
