Import
We don’t import fruit and vegetables, we import quality. From the moment the fruit is on the tree, we check the quality. Whether it’s in Spain or France, the controls remain strict.
As Willem Dijk jr. says; “You don’t import fruit and vegetables, you call it importing quality”.
These controls are possible because we have intensive contact with our shippers. We import a lot, so check a lot. There is also an on-location personal control once a month.
Quick, skilled delivery
Our team has years of experience in the fruit and vegetable sector, including in import. This brings with it many advantages. We know the best growers in Europe and always chose top quality and own import. The cauliflower that was on a field in France yesterday, is in your shop today.
