Colourful, nutritious and versatile

Swiss chard is a new leaf vegetable introduced to Southeast Asia countries. In addition to its eye-catching variety of colors, Swiss chard also has high nutritional value due to its high content of vitamins A, C, K, B, B2, B6, etc... and minerals. Currently, Swiss chard is an important ingredient in meals in Western countries and is increasingly appearing on the table of Asia families.

Horticulture is a surprisingly dynamic and fast developing industry. We believe in Asia we are only at the start of the development of protected horticulture. Working with growers, investors, traders, processors, retailers and other stakeholders in such an environment is a great experience. Especially since at Rijk Zwaan, we are an essential part at the beginning of the food chain through our high-quality seeds.
