Labelled as the “Wonder Vegetable” of 2006, beetroot is a valuable source of a large number of essential nutrients including folic acid and, of course, boron—allegedly excellent for your love life! It also has valuable anti carcinogens and is a convenient contributor to a healthy “5 a day” diet.
Axgro is one of the largest processors of beetroot in the UK. A huge proportion of our output is grown and graded on our own farms thus reducing the number of “food miles” and improving the environment.
Beetroot products include:
Raw graded beets
Peeled and cooked beets
Pre-packed beetroot in a number of sizes
“Long Life” beetroot—retort cooked giving an ambient life of up to 6 months
Diced Beetroot
Sliced Beetroot
Pickled Beetroot
Flavoured beetroot (raspberry / orange etc)
Future developments include working with coated and roasted beets. We are also working with trading partners on a number of projects including smoothies and beetroot & chocolate cake.
