Product description Potato

Originating from the fertile soils of Germany, the ‘Baltic Fire’ is a striking modern potato variety that truly lives up to its vibrant name. The potato is instantly recognisable by its smooth, deep red skin, which protects a core of light yellow flesh. As an early maincrop, this variety matures steadily over a period of approximately ninety to one hundred days, developing into uniform, oval tubers that are both visually appealing and practical in use.

Environmental & biodiversity impact Responsible land stewardship is second nature to us. We grow potatoes not only for today, but for the next generation. This means ensuring that our operations have minimal environmental impact. We work closely with our growers to select robust, future proof varieties that are resilient to climate change and evolving regulations. Sustainable cultivation is central to this approach.
Animal welfare We cultivate potatoes and do not keep livestock in the traditional sense. However, we feel strongly connected to the natural environment. Our commitment focuses on the health of the entire ecosystem in which our crops grow. Supporting initiatives such as bird research through the brand Jongens van de Klei is our way of caring for the animals that share the land with our potatoes.
Social impact Our story revolves around people: the growers who cultivate the potatoes and the employees who process and pack them. We operate fairly and responsibly and strictly adhere to the ETI Base Code. This means care for our employees, fair wages and safe, good working conditions. In addition, we align our long term objectives with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, demonstrating that quality entrepreneurship and quality of life go hand in hand.
