President and CEO Jerson Salazar has worked with clients big and small from all around the world presenting his product lines of exotics, organics, and superfoods from Peru.

Jerson was born in "The Pearl of the Andes" in Tarma, Junin Peru, a city known for its clean and fresh air climate with the most stunning views of the world's most beautiful Andes mountains.

In 2015, Jerson was invited to the Fruit Logistica World Food Exhibition in Berlin, Germany..While working there, it came to his attention that NASA was using Quinoa and Maca for the astronauts being sent into space.

That’s when he found out that the strongest Maca, one of the most powerful organic superfoods in the world, was being grown in his hometown in Tarma Junin by his relatives dating back to the Incan times.

The demand for this unique superfood treasure, his family’s roots, and knowledge of the family farmers led to the creation of PERUFRESH.
