OUR PRODUCTION PLANTS
Every stage of the entire production processes in our salad facilities is closely monitored to make sure we meet the stringent criteria we have laid down for quality control, traceability and food safety. Some 64 million packs of salad are shipped from our production facilities every year. The raw ingredients are carefully checked on arrival, and an uninterrupted cooling chain and optimised handling procedures ensure that the product remains fresh throughout the process. Our range of convenience foods is produced in Lindesberg, some 40 kilometers north of Örebro.
HELSINGBORG, SWEDEN
Our Helsingborg facility is one of the most modern and most efficient in all of Europe for the production of ready-cut salads. It is certified in accordance with BRC, a global standard for food safety, and also has certification for the production of both KRAV-labelled and EU eco-labelled food products. The facility already has a very low impact on the surrounding environment, and we are working actively to further reduce our energy and water consumption.
VANTAA, FINLAND
