Who are we?
Rago is the second largest exporter of Rucola (wild rocket) in Europe growing rucola 12 months the year.
We are quickly becoming a leader also of Baby Leaf products such as wild rocket, green and red lettuce, corn salad and spinach to name a few.
98% of our products are grown under cover in plastic tunnels because this reduces the adverse effects of the environment and limits any growth of airborne plants (weeds) that frequently grow along side the plants in open fields which take water and nutrition from the plants and attract insects.
Our Water
We irrigate our plants and wash our products with fresh mineral water from a deep underground lake. In addition to the health benefits of growing plants with fresh mineral water, it also gives us the ability to not be concerned with drought or have a dependence on treated municipal water sources.
We spend over €100,000 a annual to test our wells to insure the quality of the water. |
Production IV range: (Washed)
Baby Leaf and other varieties are mixed to create tasty cut and washed ready to eat salads. We use a wide variety in our mixes such as radicchio, endive, curly endive, spinach, swiss chard and radicchio as well as red and green baby leaf, spinach and corn salad packaged primarily in baskets in ultra transparent Pet and enveloped with anti fog film.
Production I gamma: (Unwashed)
Almost our entire line of products are available also unwashed in baskets wrapped in anti fog film.
Other
We have a wide variety of seasonal plants which we offer such as melons, tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, pumpkin and more. We also many different soup base combinations.
Wholesale to the trade.
A very large part of our business is selling the product direct from the field in 4 kg boxes to supermarkets and other companies who package their own blend of salads.
We also package our salad blends for supermarket chains to be sold under the supermarkets brand name. |
