We maintain a great relationship with our partners, allowing us to trace our products back to the point of growing. All information can then be passed on to our customers, allowing them to buy with confidence.
Prepared Vegetables for Convenience
Our range of IQF vegetables comes in various preparation types. This helps customers reduce the time within production, without compromising on taste.
Each vegetable is treated individually, so they maintain optimum usage and flavour.
Our IQF onions, butternut squash and peppers are available roasted and chopped in a variety of sizes, whilst our IQF broccoli and cauliflower comes in florets, crumbed or in rice form.
We know how important availability is to our customers, which is why we have palettes available to ship out as and when they are needed.

The Big Questions
What does IQF mean?
IQF freezing is a process which involves individual quick freezing of produce.
A process used within the food processing industry, taking small food products and quick freezing them.
The main advantage of the IQF process is that it only takes minutes preventing large ice crystals from forming. This results in the vegetables maintaining their colour, shape, taste and smell when it comes to defrosting.
