Operating since May 2024 under its new statutory name, Tummers USA Inc., Tummers Food Processing Solutions has officially established a presence in the United States. Known for its cutting-edge innovations in food processing equipment, the Dutch-based company aims to enhance service delivery and support within the U.S. food processing industry. The move signals a strategic expansion that promises to benefit American agricultural businesses and professionals significantly.
A Growing Global Presence
Tummers Food Processing Solutions has been a prominent name in agricultural and food processing technology, with existing branches like Tummers Asia in Hong Kong and Tummers Kiron India in Mumbai. According to President Lennaert van Dijk, Tummers USA completes a global triangle of strategic hubs designed to better address the needs of a worldwide market. “With Tummers USA, we are expanding our reach, enhancing our service offerings, and providing personalized support and contact,” van Dijk emphasized.
The decision to establish operations in the United States was driven by the rapid growth of the food processing industry and an increasing demand for advanced, reliable, and efficient processing solutions. The U.S. market, known for its scale and dynamism in agriculture and food production, represents a critical arena for Tummers to showcase and expand its innovative product lines.
What Tummers USA Inc. Will Offer
Located at 8512 West Elisa Street, Suite A, Boise, Idaho, 83709, Tummers USA will begin operations as a sales office and spare parts warehouse. This initial setup ensures that clients will have better access to essential components, reducing wait times and making equipment maintenance and repairs more efficient. A Vice-President of Sales will oversee all operations and will act as the main point of contact, underscoring Tummers’ commitment to strong, personalized customer relationships.
Future plans include further expansion, with the possibility of adding more capabilities such as equipment assembly, technical support, and a full-service maintenance division. These developments are poised to benefit not only large-scale food processing plants but also farmers and agribusinesses that depend on efficient and reliable machinery.
The Importance of Quick, Reliable Service in Food Processing
For farmers and food producers, having timely and reliable access to service and parts is crucial. Downtime due to equipment failure can be extremely costly, especially in an industry where efficiency and productivity are vital. Tummers USA’s local presence will mitigate these risks by ensuring quicker turnaround times for service and support.
The company’s advanced solutions are particularly valuable for processing staples like potatoes, which are a significant agricultural product in the United States. Idaho, the location of the new branch, is one of the top potato-producing states in the country, making Boise a strategic choice for Tummers. The company’s technology, which includes peeling, cutting, and starch recovery systems, is designed to optimize production lines, reduce waste, and improve the quality of processed food products.
The establishment of Tummers USA Inc. is a significant development for the U.S. food processing industry, especially for farmers and agronomists focused on streamlining operations and improving efficiency. With a local branch now operational in Boise, Idaho, Tummers is well-positioned to provide quicker, more efficient service and support. This expansion marks a promising new chapter for Tummers Food Processing Solutions and signals a positive step forward for American agriculture.
