Yuksel Seeds has announced the opening of its Yuksel Experience Showcase (YES!) at Delphy’s high-tech glasshouse in Bleiswijk.
Starting in the middle of April, YES! is designed to provide an opportunity for global crop consultants, key grower-marketers, and preferred suppliers to experience the agronomic performance of Yuksel’s premium tomato portfolio in a ”cutting-edge environment”.
The Bleiswijk region is a strategic meeting point for international horticulture professionals, attracting visitors twice a year, Yuksel outlined.
”With Yuksel Experience Showcase, Yuksel Seeds aims to create a dynamic platform for knowledge exchange and performance benchmarking, supporting retailers and foodservice partners in delivering superior quality to consumers worldwide,” the group noted.
Visitors to the showcase will discover 21 tomato varieties ranging from snack types to heirloom specialists, including 16 varieties with ToBRFV resistance.
Additionally, they will see live crop performance demonstrations in Delphy’s high-tech glasshouse, fruit sampling to experience flavour and quality first-hand, and access to data collection and insights on crop characteristics and consumer benefits.
“This new space demonstrates our strong commitment to innovation and diversity in fresh products,” said Hicham Abba, head of marketing and area manager for AWEAME.
”We are very proud to inaugurate YES! at Delphy’s high-tech greenhouse, a benchmark for agricultural innovation.
”Working closely with colleagues such as Nico Van Vliet, downstream integration lead, further strengthens our ability to connect breeding innovation with market needs and deliver high-performance solutions for growers worldwide,” he added.
