About Hard Frescos
Founded in 2014 by Peter Stearns, Hard Frescos was inspired by traditional Mexican and Latin American flavors and culture. Mr. Stearns spent more than two years developing the products in a pilot plant, performing a series of yeast fermentation trials and product blending tests. Mr. Stearns is a chef and food scientist who has worked with natural and organic companies such as Clif Bar, Annie’s, Balance Bar, and Tanka Bar.
Hard Frescos’ corporate social responsibility includes giving back to our community with grassroots programs and sponsorships in Latino neighborhoods where the Company has been embraced. The Hard Frescos team currently works with organizations such as Alta Med in the Los Angeles area. The Team plans to expand its network of local partnerships as the Company grows and distribution expands.
In addition, prominent on Hard Frescos packaging and associated with each flavor are animals: axolotl, quetzal, xolo, and melipona. These animals represent the Team’s passion for the environment and the outdoors. The Team is committed to environmental preservation and several on the founding team started a 501(c)(3) to preserve habitat and wildlife and support of underserved North American indigenous communities.
