We grow our quinoa in the Netherlands and Belgium
We grow quinoa locally with new low-saponin varieties. These varieties are adapted to the local climate and have been developed by Wageningen University & Research. Quinoa gives our local growers a new crop alternative, fortifying their livelihood security.
Our growers do their best to grow the quinoa as sustainably as possible by, for example, not using pesticides (for both conventional and organic quinoa) and focusing on regenerative and nature-inclusive agriculture.

Sustainability
Our quinoa has a low CO2-equivalent footprint
The new quinoa varieties we use have a very low saponin content (a bitter substance). This means we can skip the traditional high energy-consuming saponin-removal steps such as polishing, washing and drying. This means our quinoa is whole grain.
Moreover, all our quinoa is grown without pesticides and our growers focus on regenerative agriculture. By cultivating our quinoa close to our processing facilities, we significantly reduce transport distances. Furthermore, we are increasingly incorporating solar energy to dry and process the quinoa. As a result, our quinoa has a low CO2-eq footprint.
