About Coöperatie Koninklijke Avebe UA

We get more out of the potato. The potato is our raw material. It seems like such an everyday crop, but it is a special gift from nature. Royal Avebe is a cooperative of starch potato growers. Traditionally, we focused on extracting starch from the potato. But through the development of innovative techniques, we now also extract proteins from the potato, intended for the food industry. And we're not there yet. For us, the potato is a source of possibilities with even more ingredients that can be added value. In short, we get out of it what we put into it! Every day, more than 1,000 Avebe employees work to utilize all the possibilities that the potato offers to make life more pleasant, healthier and easier. For our customers, our members and for society as a whole. In addition, our breeding company Averis Seeds B.V. to the natural breeding and development of potato varieties. Varieties with properties that match our innovative ambitions. That is how we work towards an increasingly sustainable company and achieving solid returns for our members. Our customers manufacture the most diverse products in the food industry. But also in industrial applications and high-quality animal feed. They choose our ingredients because they have added value: they simplify the production process, improve the taste of the product or, for example, make it last longer. Optimal returns Over the next hundred years we will continue what we are doing now: revealing the secrets of the potato and adding value. We want to achieve good returns for our growers not only today, but also tomorrow and in the distant future. We look for harmony between profit, the environment and people: our growers, employees and customers. That is where we want to excel.
