The terroirs of Crop's Vegetables
The story of our top-quality frozen vegetables begins in the fields.
We grow the vast majority of our vegetables, so that we can keep an eye on the entire process, from seed to product. We choose the most suitable terroirs to cultivate specific types and varieties of vegetables, and we invest in the latest agricultural technologies to stay in even more harmony with the land on which we grow.
Join us on the cross-European agricultural journey, full of dedication to nature, innovation, biodiversity, and people who share the same passion.
