Our Belgian vegetable processors annually process around 1 million tonnes of vegetables into frozen products. From cauliflowers to leeks, beans, cabbage, peas and carrots: in no time at all, they go from the field to the factory where they retain all their vitamins. 

Our frozen vegetables enjoy an excellent reputation in the United States. Frozen food producer Greenyard is now introducing its innovative, sustainable cauliflower rice to New York City.  

There is no doubt that organic products are on the rise. According to BioForum, the sectoral organisation for organic agriculture and food in Flanders, the sector has been thriving for years. 

The story of the Belgian frozen vegetable sector started in 1965 with the first company to start producing frozen vegetables. Since then the number of frozen vegetable companies in the Belgian vegetable-growing region of South and West Flanders has grown to twelve.

Belgium produces vegetables of the highest quality. Tomatoes, chicory, lettuce, leeks, carrots, cucumbers, peppers, cauliflower, asparagus and mushrooms, grown mainly by family owned companies, are on shop shelves around the world.

Cosucra, a Belgian food company specialized in pea and chicory root ingredients, invested 35 million euros in its facility in Warcoing (Wallonia) to answer to increasing demands, especially from North America.
