Our focus on innovation is reinforced with the signing of a new contract with Tortuga AgTech, bringing 52 robots to our UK production.

Our origins date back to the 60’s, grounded in a traditional British farm life. Whilst we are very proud of our history, we are thrilled to showcase the remarkable achievements we have accomplished throughout the years, which includes the expansion of our business, its internationalisation, and all the continuous improvements made possible by an innovative approach to agribusiness.
To be able to grow our scale and develop our operation in a sustainable way is what makes us stand out from our competitors. And this is only possible because of the focus we put on the quality of our fruit, the care we have for our people, and our deep respect for the environment.
