ROME, June 4, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- "BESTORE, won four golds!" On the afternoon of June 3rd in Rome, BESTORE's Vice President Zhao Gang took over the certificate from Patrick de Halleux, chairman of the Monde Selection.

Founded in 1961, Monde Selection is a historical European organization which tests and rates consumer products to officially recognize quality-conscious producers. Its Gold Quality Award is dubbed as the Nobel Prize for Food and represents the highest industry standards in Europe and the world.

This year, the Monde Selection's jury was composed of 80 Michelin stared chefs, world renowned oenologists, university professors, nutritionists and dieticians. The evaluation was carried out in an overall way from organoleptic, chemical and bacteriological qualities of a product to the intrinsic qualities and communication with the consumer as well as the philosophy of the European Law on food safety. The final result of the evaluation is calculated on the basis of the average points awarded by each jury member in a totally independent manner before awarding a product a bronze, silver, gold or grand gold quality award.

The results were unveiled after 175 evaluations of 2,948 products from 90 countries. Among the 23 snack products from BESTORE, 4 products were granted with Gold Quality Award, 13 products were with Silver Quality Award and 6 products were with Bronze Quality Award.
