Vegetables from Holland
•	Combilo specialise in the supply of traditional Dutch vegetables. Due to the success of the VDN group as whole, Combilo has been able to significantly increase its market share year on year in recent times.
•	The VDN concept focuses on direct contact between the grower and the consumer. Founded in 1997, the concept proved to be highly successful. In 2006, VDN had a production area at its disposal of approximately 380 hectares under glass and approximately 550 hectares of outdoor vegetable production. This ensures that also in terms of production capacity, VDN ranks very highly in the Netherlands.
•	The seasonal calendar below shows the number of available products, which are supplied directly by our VDN growers. However, the VDN range comprises many more products. Vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, radishes and cherry tomatoes are also readily available.
