Soft fruit grower Jong Fruit is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year. Fifteen years ago, Arian de Jong stepped in, and the current Jong Fruit BV was established.
The history of the company goes back even further in the past. The company started in 1963 with a collaboration between Piet de Jong and his father, and halfway through the 80s, Tonny de Jong also joined the partnership. Later, in July 1990, Rob van der Wouw partnered with Piet de Jong.
Recently, the growers announced they were fully switching to strawberries. Up until this year, raspberries were also cultivated.
Another piece of news is that a CHP space is currently being realized for the only location that did not yet have a CHP.
