Ardo in a nutshell

Year after year, harvest after harvest, Ardo supplies its continuously growing markets around the world with high quality fresh frozen vegetables, herbs, fruit, pasta, rice and potatoes.

Innovation at all levels

Our knowledge throughout the entire value chain combined with our flexible approach allows us to satisfy current and adapt to future market needs through innovation, investment and technical excellence. At Ardo, we are always developing new products in response to market needs and trends.

Comprehensive product knowledge

In our continual search to improve both our existing products and the range that we offer, we run extensive field trials each year that allow us to take full advantage of our geographical and climatic spread to develop new products and new varieties for our customers.

Local worldwide approach

With sales offices in Europe and North-America, there’s always a member of our sales team close to hand, to react quickly to local market requirements.

Sustainable partnership

Ardo supports long-term relationships with our growers, our suppliers and our customers, which we believe offer stability for all parties which is necessary to provide the confidence for sustainable investments.

We are working hard to develop truly sustainable ways of growing our crops and producing our products that consider the crop’s requirements, the activities of our farmers and the demands of our customers.

17 production, packing & distribution sites in 8 countries

Ardo’s production, packing & distribution sites are located from north to south and from east to west in world’s most fertile crop growing regions. The close proximity of our factories to our crops is one of our key strengths and ensures that only minutes are lost between harvest and locking in the product’s natural goodness in our freezers.

Quality is the cornerstone of our corporate strategy

Field management

Ardo works together with over 3,500 farmers to grow 87 crops on 49,000 ha in 9 countries.

We produce frozen vegetables that are grown with the maximum respect for nature and the environment. Therefore we work pro-actively towards more sustainable agricultural production methods, whilst at the same time remaining commercially competitive. We strive to minimize the impact of our growing and processing activities on the environment, and we ensure at the same time the personal safety and life quality of our farmers and employees.

This approach is summarized in our MIMOSA-program, Minimum Impact with Maximum Output Sustainable Agriculture.

Production

Our aim is to deliver our ingredients in the same state that Mother Nature intended: fresh, nutritious and picked at peak ripeness in the crop’s natural season. Applying integrated crop management and production techniques, and focussing on quality assurance and high ethical standards, we control the product from seed to customer

We installed in our factories new state-of-the-art packing lines with innovative technology for metal detection and colour-, shape- and density sorting.

Quality

Product quality is one of the cornerstones of our business. We employ 53 agronomists and 148 technicians who work 24/7 to ensure that our products arrive at your site in specification and to the highest quality standard.

Our agricultural departments care for the crops until they are delivered to our processing sites where our Quality Assurance teams take over and monitor raw materials, production processes, product selection and packing.

Our objective is to supply our customers with products that meet the highest safety and quality standards. Our production sites are certified to internationally recognised standards (BRC / IFS) that in turn provide a platform for the more demanding Ardo group standards.

Our Quality Managers play an active role at all stages of production and we encourage them to become experts in each of the crops that they are involved with. To acquire this knowledge they accompany our agronomists on field visits and undertake training in the production processes in our factories.

Our Quality Managers use their ‘Complete Product Knowledge’ each day. Their efforts help to build customer confidence and add value to our customers’ reputation by delivering the quality required that we are renowned for.

MIMOSA striving for sustainable vegetable, fruit and herb production

Ardo works closely with growers’ associations to match products to consumer wishes. The growers’ associations work with Ardo to continuously develop more sustainable cultivation methods. This ensures that Ardo produces fresh-frozen vegetables with the greatest possible respect for nature and the environment. Together we strive every day to carry out the MIMOSA programme.

MIMOSA stands for Minimum Impact and Maximum Output Sustainable Agriculture.

What does this mean?

Minimum impact

We try to make optimum use of all resources: seeds, herbicides and pesticides, fertilizers, irrigation water, etc.

Maximum output

To continue realising this ambition in the long term, we must pay attention to staying competitive and strive for maximum output in both volume and quality.

Sustainable agriculture

In everything we do, we consider the impact on the environment and people. We do all in our power to minimise any impact.

Essentially this means that we tackle improvements in two ways:

- A corporate R&D programme to study and test new methods and technologies (mainly for extensive or machine-harvested crops such as peas, beans, carrots and spinach);

- Helping local agronomists (now around 50 in number) be creative and proactive in developing sustainable solutions (for all crops, including intensively/manually harvested crops).

A few examples

- The agronomists select the growers who will cultivate the right crops in the right soil, in order to ensure that our production facilities receive the desired quantities with the right quality at the right time.

- The seed for the vegetables is selected and purchased by the agronomists. By selecting and sowing only the best seed, we significantly improve the chances of a successful crop.

- Large-scale field trials are carried out to determine the optimal sowing density for major crops.

- Fertilizers and irrigation need to be matched to the needs of the plants, which is why soil samples and moisture level measurements are important.

- The agronomists and growers regularly inspect the fields for weeds, diseases and insect infestations. Where necessary, plant protection products are used judiciously.

Ardo Shine

Ardo challenges the existing high levels of operational hygiene across the company’s 20 European production sites, where it freezes, packs and stores frozen vegetables, fruit and herbs. Starting with an investigation into areas where potential improvements could be made – guided by an external consultant conversant with EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group) principles, Ardo established a staged, multi-dimensional approach to introduce targeted changes across each of its production units. The project, named SHINE (food Safety and Hygiene in Evolution) covers five main pillars:

The SHINE project (‘food Safety and Hygiene IN Evolution’) sets the bar even higher for Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and everyday operational hygiene at the Ardo production sites. The project began with research into potential areas of improvement and resulted in a phased, multi-dimensional approach with proposed reforms within each production unit.

Together with the Ardo Group engineers and quality department, the site managers, local engineers and quality departments, we assessed the set-up and operational activities of the different sites as the basis of this project. At Ardo Group level, a Food Technologist was appointed tocoordinate all activities pertaining to cleaning, waste processing and monitoring, with the first assignment being the development of a microbial database of all the products on the production and packing lines in all Ardo factories.

Another initiative is coaching Ardo’s building and material suppliers in the principles of hygienic design and the need for better accessibility to ensure proper cleaning. The result? Currently, all food-related engineering projects and investments in infrastructure (floors, walls, ceilings, ventilation) and machine parks within the Ardo Group are being carried out according to the established hygienic principles.

Ardo Pure

‘PURE’ stands for ‘Prevent, Uncover, Reduce and Eliminate foreign bodies’. With PURE, Ardo wants to do everything within its power to prevent foreign objects ending up in the products. Our ambition: Ardo end products that are 100% contamination-free.

Detecting and removing foreign objects is a top priority during production and the packing of vegetables, fruit and herbs. However, prevention is better than curing. This means inspections in the field and inspection of harvesting machinery are crucial.

Transportation of pure raw materials to our factories in special metal containers also prevents contamination. In the factories, the processing equipment is regularly inspected and maintained. We have excellent washing equipment and highquality detection and removal equipment. Optical sorting machines, magnets, metal detectors, X-ray detectors and more – the range of PURE instruments is very diverse and extensive.

The right machines at the right locations, an expert approach carried out by specially trained employees, in combination with the right preventive measures: this is Ardo’s recipe for keeping products contamination-free. The Ardo site managers and agricultural, production and maintenance teams are constantly working to improve this process. Through their efforts, the PURE project will be given an extra boost.

The right machines in the right place. High quality detection and elimination equipment.

Correct use of the plant protection products. Inspection of the field, harvester and transport.

Circular Economy

The idea is quite simple. Whenever we take something from nature, we give something back. That’s it. But that’s just an idea, a principle. To transfer this to the real world and to make it meaningful, we need to do more. Much more. And at Ardo, we think we’ve managed it…

At Ardo, we preserve nature’s precious gifts. To do this, Ardo needs natural resources, such as raw materials, water and energy. These resources are very precious and that is why we use them in the most sustainable way. Circular economy is a key word in our production process.

Green electricity and green steam generated at the biomethanisation plant in Ardooie (BE).

Circle of Cold & Heat

Locally grown vegetables, herbs and fruit are freshly frozen at our production plants and then stored at a temperature of -21° Celsius in our cold stores before they go to the end customer. Whenproducing cold, residual heat is inevitably created. To avoid wasting this heat, we capture it. We use it to make hot cleaning water. The recuperated heat is also used to transform our offices into a nice and warm work-place when it’s cold outside, and when it’s hot we use recycled cold from our cold store, to keep our colleagues cool.

Circle of Water

During each production step, we try to minimise our consumption of water and maximise the re-use of water. Water that is used for processing the vegetables is collected and purified in our biological waste water treatment plant. The purified water is used a second time for washing the vegetables coming from the fields. The remaining water is stored in a huge 150 million liter reservoir. Through an irrigation network, local growers can use this water to irrigate the crops. And that’s how we close the loop.

Circle of Energy

In our biomethanisation plant, we turn vegetable residues into biogas. The biogas powers generators that transform the gas into green energy. Green electricity is used to freeze and store our vegetables. Green steam is used for steam peeling and blanching. Up to 40% of the energy needs of the Ardooie plant are covered this way.

In addition, the by-products of the biomethanisation process are converted into organic fertiliser, which goes back to the farmers’ fields to grow vegetables for the next season. Providing another way to give back.

Circular thinking with solar panels

In 2019, we built an irrigation basin at our site in Ardooie (BE). This basin fills up with rainwater and treated waste water. Farmers use it to irrigate the fields during dry periods. The irrigation basin is equipped with 4,860 solar panels to generate our own electricity, and ensure fewer algae grow, meaning we lose less water through evaporation.

The roof of our packaging warehouse is also fitted with 800 solar panels. Together, these panels cover 2.5% of the total energy consumption requirements at the Ardooie site. This reduces our external energy need by around 5%.

Fresh-frozen? Of course!

Perhaps you do not immediately think of fresh-frozen vegetables, fruit or herbs, but they are a great choice. Fresh-frozen vegetables, herbs and fruit have a major advantage: they retain most of their nutritional value because they are frozen very quickly after harvesting. That makes their colour, texture and taste richer than those of fresh vegetables, and they also contain more vitamins.

Ardo’s fresh-frozen vegetables, fruit and herbs have consistently high quality, and they save a lot of time and energy in the kitchen. They are pre-washed and pre-cut, and only need to be cooked briefly (steam or boil) prior to use. What’s more, they are easily portionable – just prepare what you need, and put the rest back in the freezer. The perfect way to avoid food waste.

Ardo leaves nothing to chance to ensure that we can supply our FoodService customers with high-quality vegetables, fruit and herbs all year round, so they can serve delicious, attractive and vitamin-rich meals.

Fresh-frozen vegetables, herbs and fruit: bursting with vitamins.

Thanks to our broad range of fresh-frozen products, you benefit from vitamin-rich vegetables and fruit all year round. That is a significant advantage of fresh-frozen produce over fresh produce. The nutritional value of all fruit and vegetables gradually declines from the time it is harvested, so it’s easy to imagine how much the vitamin content of fresh produce imported from other continents has dropped by the time you buy it. This is especially true of seasonal fresh fruit and vegetables, such as fresh fruit and vegetables imported from sunnier climes in the winter or beans imported from distant Kenya. The long transport time over water and land before the product reaches your kitchen causes much of the nutritional value to be lost.

By contrast, fresh-frozen fruit and vegetables are frozen directly after harvest in the country of origin. Freezing ensures maximum preservation of the nutritional content. That enables you to buy top-quality seasonal products any time you wish. For example, in the winter you can find vitamin-rich and tasty fresh-frozen strawberries or garden peas in the freezer compartment at attractive prices.

Product information for a healthy and balanced diet

Nutritional information on packaging

Ardo aims to keep consumers as fully and clearly informed as possible. We state the Reference Intake (RI) on most of our packaging to show how products contribute to your daily intake. This is very easy for Ardo to do, because all of our products are healthy and their convenience helps consumers maintain a healthy, balanced diet.

The information on Ardo’s packaging and Ardo’s website is continuously updated for changing EU regulations on the declaration of nutritional information and allergens Consumers or chefs can consult the Ardo website to help them decide which fresh-frozen vegetable, preparation or fruit is best suited to a specific diet.

Research and development for healthy products

When developing value-added items, Ardo’s product developers always take into account the latest developments in sustainable ingredients and processes to ensure ‘clean label’ product quality (free from genetically modified organism (GMO) ingredients).

Ardo participates in a wide variety of research projects aimed at finding new methods to maximise preservation of the vitamin content, texture and colour of vegetables during processing and freezing. Regular internal and external taste panels determine Ardo benchmarks for various organoleptical aspects.

Critical analysis enables us to adapt a product to specific criteria in order to continue to meet customer requirements.

Sweetcorn: a top product at Ardo

Sweetcorn is well known for its sweet flavour and high sugar content. And children love it. Ardo produces sweetcorn in its factories in Spain and in France. Here’s a brief account of our visit to the French factory.

Sweetcorn is sown from the beginning of April until the beginning of July. This sweet variety likes warmth and humidity. The Landes region, south of Bordeaux, is ideal for growing sweetcorn. The sandy soil is irrigated continuously. Furthermore, the temperature is 28° to 30°C on average during the growing cycle.

Regular laboratory analyses on seeds and plants during the growing phase ensure that the product is GMO-free and fully meets harvest specifications.

Processing in the plant

Once the plants are fully grown, harvesters carefully remove the ears of each plant. A truck then transports the ears, as quickly as possible, to the factory, guaranteeing swift freezing to lock in the flavour and nutrients. Special machines remove the leaves from the ears, which are then sorted manually and electronically by length. Whole (13 cm), half cobs or 1/4 corn cobs are selected manually. The remaining ears are sent for the production of kernel corn. A machine automatically cuts the kernels free from the husk.

The rest of the production continues in the same way as with other products such as peas, i.e. washing, optical sorting, blanching and freezing. Regular checks guarantee constant production quality throughout the process.

Interesting facts

• Maize was grown in Central America 3000 years ago. It was introduced into Europe by Christopher Columbus.

• Sweetcorn is not only delicious, it also contains healthy ingredients, such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (46%) and saturated fatty acids (15%). Furthermore its kernels contain vitamin B, magnesium and many important fibres.

• Sweetcorn kernels lend themselves to all sorts of vegetable combinations, like omelettes, soups, salads, fish dishes etc. Corn cobs are mainly prepared in the oven with a pat of butter, or on the barbecue in summer.

MIXES

This broad range of pre-blanched vegetable mixes makes it easy to prepare very creative dishes in virtually no time. Thanks to Ardo’s carefully selected, ready-made vegetable mixes; you no longer have to buy a whole list of individual ingredients.

You can vary the mixes by choosing vegetables based mainly on colour (just one colour or a bright mix of colours), cut (fine or big cuts), traditional (for example, peas and young carrots) or exotic (China mix), preparation method (steam or stir-fry), or other options.

Everyone’s a winner!

Grains & pseudograins

When it comes to energy and vitality, carbohydrates are our greatest supplier. Ardo offers a new, extensive range of grains and pseudograins. That means there are plenty of ways to add variety to a menu.

Grains are one of the most important sources of nutrition. Each one has its own health benefits, which is why a varied diet is essential. They contain a wide range of nutrients and are packed full of fibre, various vitamins, iron, calcium and magnesium.

Just like ‘real’ grains, ‘pseudograins’ are highly nutritious and give you the energy you need. What’s more, some pseudograins, such as buckwheat and quinoa, are naturally gluten-free, which offers an additional health benefit.

Grains, an indispensable source of fibre

Ancient grains mix cooked red quinoa, white quinoa, brown rice, black rice, buckwheat

Barley cooked

Quinoa cooked

Bulgur cooked

No salt or other flavourings, so they can be used to rustle up all sorts of meals.

Highly nutritious: low in fat and carbohydrates; high in fibre, minerals and vitamin B.

Al dente cooked, which saves a lot of time in the kitchen. All you need to do is heat them up to enjoy hot or cold.

Pulses

Pulses are more popular than ever. Although they come in many shapes, colours and flavours, they have a lot in common: they are sustainable, an excellent substitute for meat, and above all, extremely healthy.

Preparing pulses is relatively time-consuming due to the need for soaking and cooking. Ardo does this for you: we soak the pulses as long as they need, cook and freeze them. Quickly heat them in a steamer, pan, microwave, etc. Tasty, easy and very nutritious!

A must-have in every kitchen! Full of colour, taste and possibilities.

Sustainable: low carbon and water footprint.

Trendy: fits in the trend of superfood.

Grilled Vegetables

Ardo’s grilled vegetables give your cuisine more inspiration, more taste and a Mediterranean flair. Grilled vegetables are essential for Mediterranean dishes such as moussaka, pizza and lasagne. But they also give your vegetarian dishes or Mediterranean-style sandwiches additional allure. And with Ardo’s grilled vegetables you save time, work and energy. The vegetables are pre-cut and grilled with perfect uniformity. You can also use them in cold dishes, but don’t forget to heat up the vegetables briefly first (in the oven or pan).

Ready-made pasta salads for buffets

Ardo ‘Fines Herbes’ are carefully selected, quick frozen herbs and pungent flavour enhancers! They offer a way to boost flavour and even help people to reduce their salt intake. Their taste, aroma and colour are fresh and distinctive, like the products offered ‘fresh’, but with the distinct advantage of little waste and no chopping!
