Potatoes 

Flanders has a long tradition of growing potatoes. It has the right type of soil and an ideal climate for cultivating a wide range of potato varieties. The Flemish potato sector is characterised by hard-working growers who use the most up-to-date technology. Flemish potatoes are famous for their excellent quality and their delicious, full-bodied flavour.
Flemish potatoes are increasingly finding their way into the highly specialised potato processing industry and foreign markets, in both processed and unprocessed form.
The export-oriented firms offer an excellent personalised service and operate with great speed and accuracy, supplying potatoes to all corners of the globe. Hardly surprising, therefore, that the concepts of quality and flexibility, the trademarks of the Flemish potato sector, are at the centre of VLAM's export promotional activities aimed at commercial traders.

The unique combination of an ideal climate, high-quality soil and traditional expertise means that Flemish seed potatoes are suited to various types of soil and can satisfy a range of quality requirements. These assets, coupled with advanced technical know-how, biotechnological research and strictly regulated supervision by the competent authorities, guarantee that Flemish seed potatoes are of the finest quality. The concept of certified seed potatoes is a key feature in communications with farmers and foreign buyers.
