History
Hoofdman Roodzant is known as one of the leading exporters of fruit and vegetables to Eastern Europe. Originally founded as a family-run business in the late 1970s, the company began exporting to these markets in the early 1990s and grew into one of the major players in our markets.
Over the years, the market has faced many challenges and changes. While others left, Hoofdman Roodzant persevered. Thanks to deep market knowledge and long-standing experience, we are able to create value for producers worldwide and position ourselves as a reliable market specialist in a complex trading environment.
Since 2026, the commercial activities of Freshpride have been integrated into Hoofdman Roodzant. This brings the specialist expertise and established presence of Freshpride in Asia and the Middle East into our group, extending our reach to these markets and further strengthening our position as an international market specialist.
