UK: APS Salads acquires NorthBank Growers
Last year, another large UK tomato grower, Cornerways Nursery, left the Greenery/Coforta by signing a five year agreement with Thanet Earth for the marketing of their produce.
According to a spokesperson of The Greenery, the company is currently sourcing other local producers in the UK to serve the British market.
APS Salads is the UK's largest tomato grower. In 2015 they bought the Wight Salads Group, bringing the total acreage at 106 hectare, of which 46 are high tech greenhouses.
