Rojo’s pico de gallo, queso win Scovie Awards

Rojo’s, a company specializing in the creation of refrigerated, restaurant-style salsas and chips expanded their product line earlier this year with the launch of Salsa Con Queso and Queso Blanco. The launches joined the Cypress, Calif.-based company’s portfolio of consumables which already included Pico de Gallo Salsa, Salsa Verde and Hatch Chile Salsa.

Along with the new launches, it also was announced that the brand's Pico de Gallo (medium) which contains jalapeno peppers amidst tomatoes and onions, and the Queso Blanco, containing Monterey Jack, cotija cheeses, green chiles and jalapenos; have each respectively earned first place Scovie Awards, the company said.  

“We’re honored to know several Rojo’s products have been adorned with gold once again in the 2018 Scovie Awards. The latest achievements mark our industry honors for the third year running and we couldn’t be more excited to be recognized in this capacity. At Rojo’s, we are also looking to expand into more segments to consistently satisfy consumers and dedicated fans, so receiving first place for our new Queso Blanco Dip and refreshed Pico De Gallo salsa is an exceptional achievement for the brand at a pivotal point in the launch of these items. We’re pleased that these products have delighted dip connoisseurs and that we’ve grown to become the consumer choice for premium foods in the category,” Mark Miller, vice president of marketing at Simply Fresh Foods, said.
