Royal Avebe Begins 2024 Potato Campaign with a Focus on Starch and Protein Production
Royal Avebe has launched its 2024 potato campaign, processing potatoes six days a week to produce high-quality starch and protein. This campaign supports both the company’s farmer members and the growing global demand for sustainable potato-based products.
Royal Avebe’s factories start processing potatoes six days a week, turning them into valuable potato starch and protein for the global market.
This week marks the beginning of the 2024 potato campaign at Royal Avebe, with the first batches of potatoes arriving at their factories. Over the coming months, Royal Avebe will be processing these potatoes six days a week to produce high-quality potato starch and potato protein. This intensive period is a key part of the annual operations, with potatoes sourced from the company’s farmer members.
Royal Avebe has long been a leader in potato-derived products, particularly starch and protein, which are in high demand across industries such as food production, pharmaceuticals, and biodegradable materials. The potatoes delivered to the factories during this campaign will undergo advanced processing to extract starch, which is known for its diverse applications, from thickening agents in food to components in industrial goods.
In addition to starch, Royal Avebe also focuses on the production of potato protein, which is increasingly recognized for its nutritional value and potential use in plant-based foods. With the growing trend toward sustainable and plant-based alternatives, Royal Avebe’s production of potato protein is expected to see strong demand, contributing to the company’s ongoing growth and innovation in the sector.

Royal Avebe continues to prioritize sustainability in its operations, from field to factory. The company remains committed to supporting its farmer members with tools and knowledge to enhance yields, reduce environmental impact, and ensure the high quality of the potatoes processed during the campaign.
