By working in partnership with Rijk Zwaan, growers gain early access to the newest resistant varieties. This is of strategic importance to help them meet retailers’ needs and add value for consumers. One example is Anizalla RZ, the new ToBRFV-resistant mini-plum truss variety that is already being grown commercially for sale in Germany and the UK. “We care about bringing varieties to the retail market that add value for consumers in terms of flavour and visual appeal,” says Maarten van der Leeden, Client Manager Sales at Rijk Zwaan in the Netherlands.
Plum tomato Vivolia RZ: now also an organic favourite with a unique flavour
A “flavour bomb” – that’s how organic grower Koen Van Hauteghem describes the plum tomato Vivolia RZ. In Belgium, this Rijk Zwaan truss tomato is sold exclusively by the BelOrta auction house under the name Ruby Red. Koen won an award with the organic version, and retail customer Colruyt Group is so enthusiastic that production is being further scaled up.
