After arrival at the warehouse, all products are first checked very carefully by our own quality control experts and registered in our quality control system (QC one). Finally, the products are inspected again by an independent institution, the Quality Control Bureau (KCB).

Products are inspected extensively
Quality inspections are carried out to guarantee premium quality. Our fruit and vegetables are therefore inspected extensively at our suppliers.

Hoofdman-Roodzant only works with suppliers with whom we have developed a relationship based on trust over recent years.

Quality control is carried out by our own QC team using the QC One module. We are therefore able to provide our suppliers and clients with a customised quality assurance report anywhere, any time.
