Organic Raingrown Avocado wins award - Eosta tastes the reward
As winner of the True Price Award for our Organic Raingrown Avocado, we received a special prize: a Vegan Food Tour in Utrecht. A tasty reward - but above all an inspiring example of how sustainability, consumer experience and taste reinforce each other.
Plant-based and irresistibly delicious
Accompanied by guide and co-founder Daisy Scholte, we explored hidden culinary gems across the city. We tasted surprisingly delicious vegan snacks - from a silky pastel de nata without egg to a classic Dutch bitterball a bite-sized crispy croquette, usually filled with meat, but in this case plant-based – and nearly impossible to distinguish from the original.
The producer had been making the traditional version for years, but decided to go fully plant-based after blind taste tests showed that the vegan version performed just as well. And so he did.
Selling sustainability starts with the experience
The tour showed how sustainable choices can be positioned attractively, without compromising on taste or appearance. A valuable insight for anyone aiming to make the fresh produce shelf more sustainable: taste, storytelling and consumer experience make the difference.
More ways to experience plant-based together
Besides the walk in Utrecht, there are also options for a bicycle tour, a more extensive food & culture experience, as well as tours in Rotterdam and Amsterdam. A sustainable and team-friendly way to experience how delicious plant-based food can be.

Moroccan limes provide breathing space in a tight organic lime market
Demand for organic fruit continues to grow, and organic limes are no exception. Their popularity is being driven partly by increasing demand for cocktails, mocktails and homemade lemonades, as well as their wider use in salads, curries and other dishes. Consumers are also increasingly choosing citrus grown without synthetic pesticides and without post-harvest fungicide treatment.
Kivinaki ready for the new Organic Raingrown Oranges season
Ahead of the new organic orange season, our sourcing team visited Kivinaki in Peru. Over the past four years, we have built a successful export programme with this growers’ co-operative. During the visit, we worked together to prepare for the coming months.
Healthy soil makes organic pineapples more resilient
In Costa Rica, too, the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly apparent. Heavy rainfall, in particular, is making organic pineapple cultivation more challenging and requires growers to be adaptable.
