Quality control
We believe the quality of Nyamane tomato paste begins with the tomato seed. That is why we control our agronomy end to end — from seedling and drip irrigation to harvesting at the best maturation time.
Our research and development team determines the most suitable tomato varieties for our growing region. Flavour is the first criterion; yield, appearance, disease resistance, cracking and blemish tolerance follow.
Our entire production yield originates from grafted plants, which resist pests and disease better and reduce the need for chemical products. Every young plant is monitored through its development.
Our farms combine the latest technology with healthy, traditional growing practice — suitable varieties, optimal planting dates, environmentally friendly integrated cultivation and strict compliance with waste legislation.
Tomatoes are harvested at best maturation time to preserve scent and taste, then processed on high-quality equipment that retains the freshness and valuable ingredients of the cultivated fruit.
Our strengths
It is our capability to present an unadulterated range that has earned the belief and support of our customers.
