We Try Harder
More than 200 growers, washplants, and shippers are proud to be Red River Valley potato professionals. These shippers and growers are part of the third largest potato producing region in the country producing "Best Bred Reds."
Yet, this success does not come easily. Around 24,000 acres of fertile Red River Valley soil is diligently farmed by growers who work hard to deliver you the best red potato. It is varieties like our Red Norland, with its signature deep red color, that make us particulary proud, although we do produce other potato varieites, including yellow flesh.
Our mission and commitment to you, the receiver, is to deliver a product incomparable in quality and taste, which your customers will come back to again and again. In short, our goal is to be the #1 Potato in your category.
Renowned Research Means "Peace of Mind"
Since 1947, our extensive potato research farm, and the research it has produced, has received the attention of producers and universities worldwide. In 2002 we purchased another research farm at Tappen, North Dakota which is used extensively for irrigation research. The research conducted at these facilities ensures that our growers and shippers are well educated with the latest potato production knowledge available.
This research knowledge ensures the potatoes you receive are grown with the best management practices, properly diagnosed and treated for any crop problems before they arise, responsibly handled to ensure high quality, harvested using the latest technologies and equipment, stored in climate controlled facilites, and packed and delivered with the utmost care.
Delivering Satisfaction
Strong service orientation delivers satisfaction. Working relationships are what we are all about. Growers and shippers work in tandem to deliver you a product that is colored, sized, and packed to your customer needs.
In fact, in a recent industry-wide survey, "service" was listed by the majority of Red River Valley shippers as their #1 competitive benefit.
Here's a summary of our offerings:
- Year-round availability
- Sizes ranging from creamers to premiums
- Ability to custom bag (3#, 5#, 10#, 20#, 50#, 100#, and 2000# totes, as well as special packaging and private labels)
