The Kagome Group
Founded in Japan in 1899, Kagome is recognised worldwide for its leadership in tomato and vegetable‑based foods. With more than a century of agricultural heritage, Kagome has grown into a global organisation with operations across Asia, the Americas, and Europe.
Kagome’s values align closely with our own: a belief in natural ingredients, responsible farming, and long‑term partnerships. Their focus on quality, innovation, and sustainability underpins everything they do and everything we bring to our customers here in Europe.
