“Through Foodvalley, we are collaborating with Dutch growers and will be offering edamame beans in the frozen food section in 2025. A multi-year collaboration means we can support growers with investments and the structural supply of beans. It’s great how Foodvalley enables and strengthens this. We want to be a partner so that innovative plans can be brought to practice. Together with Foodvalley, we are looking for ways to get the rest of our sector on board and thus lend a hand in the food transition.”

 Marieke van Zoggel, Jumbo
