A top quality tomato

When you choose Prominent tomatoes, you choose quality: Dutch quality. And to guarantee this quality, our tomatoes are thoroughly inspected for quality and storage life.

As a buyer, you rely on the consistent quality of Prominent tomatoes. After all, your customers also expect this of you. This is why the quality of our tomatoes is continuously monitored. Quality inspectors check our tomatoes for such attributes as weight, colour, number of fruits, temperature, and Brix value.

Advice about quality

The quality inspectors work not only at the packaging centre; they also visit all of the growers’ locations at least once a week. Besides inspecting the tomatoes then being packaged, they also provide the growers with advice about what they should do to guarantee quality. If your order is processed at the packaging centre, these tomatoes will receive an additional inspection when they arrive at the packaging centre and another one as they leave it.

Storage life

Storage life is an important element in quality. This is why the inspectors devote a great deal of attention to this aspect. Starting from the start of the production season, a box of tomatoes is collected from each grower every month. These samples are then stored at a constant temperature for 10 days. Our focus on storage life keeps growers alert to the quality of their products.
