Today we officially opened our new production site in Luttelgeest, Flevoland. On an eight-hectare site, we have built several facilities to produce organic vegetable seeds, focused on sweet pepper and cucumber.
Allison Thomas, Chief Operations Officer: “The demand for organic products is growing. We want to have more control over our seed production to continue to meet that demand. Luttelgeest is extremely suited as a location for seed production because of its fertile, light clay soil.”
A range of high-tech solutions have been developed and implemented to make seed production as sustainable as possible:
All these solutions have led to the application for Groen Label Kas (Green Label Greenhouse) certification for this site. That process is ongoing, with a lead time of one year.
