Crisp potatoes

At Thorsens Chipskartofler A/S we have almost 40 years of experience in receiving potatoes from suppliers as well as delivering them to crisps making companies. This has given us a unique knowledge about growing, handling and storing chips potatoes.

Thorsens Chipskartofler A/S has regular suppliers both in Denmark and in Germany which enables us to deliver high quality potatoes all year round.

We have good experience in delivering small as well as big quantities for both planned and sudden needs.

Depending on customer needs we can deliver washed and optically sorted crisps potatoes as well as potatoes directly from field or warehouse. We can also deliver in big-bags if delivery in bulk is not preferred.

The company keeps records of all the deliveries made – which truck was transporting the potatoes, where exactly in the warehouse were they stored as well as which grower supplied them and from which field. Likewise we collect all data on how the potatoes are treated throughout the cultivation process.

The main variety we use in July and August is Lady Rosetta, which reaches high dry matter and low sugar levels early. From September to January, we mainly supply Lady Britta and Lady Alicia as they do well during this time of year. For the rest of the season, when we deliver from storage, we use Kiebitz, Lady Claire, and SH C 1010, as these varieties all have good storage qualities.

Every year we additionally have both small and large scale trials for testing new potato varieties to constantly be in the leading position in the industry and thus optimize the use of both suppliers’ and customers’ money.
