Clearly that is not Eurofresh just simply from the blue foam in the bottom. They use a lighter blue. Also, Eurofresh tomatoes collapse in the center like normal tomatoes, the picture shows tomatoes that sat on the vine far too long. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863014635257598503.post-76799131256414955312009-01-21T10:38:00.000-05:002009-01-21T10:38:00.000-05:00How about this statement in Legal Matters section ...How about this statement in Legal Matters section of the company's 10-K<BR/><BR/>In July 2006 the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) initiated an investigation into the Company’s hiring practices with respect to immigration matters and served the Company and certain employees in the Human Resources department with a Grand Jury subpoena to obtain relevant documents. Management immediately hired legal counsel to initiate an investigation to uncover any potential wrongdoing. In December 2006, our Board of Directors appointed a special committee (the “Special Committee”) to investigate the DOJ’s allegations and the Special Committee hired its own legal counsel to represent it for the duration of the internal investigation. In February 2007, the Special Committee made recommendations to the Board of Directors based on the conclusions of its investigation, and the Special Committee also reported its findings to the DOJ in March of 2007. As a result of this investigation, the Company has terminated certain employees. The Company is in active discussions with the DOJ regarding the resolution of the investigation. Further, while it is probable that the Company will be subject to a financial penalty, at this time the amount is not estimable. However, the resolution could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.<BR/><BR/>If i am not mistaken then COO was fired for this infraction, and had to pay a $200,000 dollar penalty (this is in the public record, happy to send you the link). The company is still in discussions with the US DOJ about what a potential penalty/fine (if any) for the company itself should be.<BR/><BR/>I don't think libel is something supported by facts.Tyler Durdenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00165439451205639523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863014635257598503.post-10206573732204356082009-01-21T10:25:00.000-05:002009-01-21T10:25:00.000-05:00What facts do you have to support your claim that ...What facts do you have to support your claim that Eurofresh Farms hires illegal immigrants?
