Cambodia in General

Throughout the years Cambodia has positioned itself as one of the top five exporters of organic rice to the European Union. It is not a surprise that rice from Cambodia is internationally known for its superior quality. The rice from Cambodia sourced by Doens Food has even won several quality prices throughout the last couple of years. Rice is grown and harvested in an extensive strip of land that runs from the western to the eastern part of the country. The most popular varieties of rice that are produced in Cambodia are white gold and jasmine rice.

Doens Food’s connection with Cambodia

Through the project in Cambodia, Doens Food and its partners commit themselves to build a sustainable product source that not only supports a fair income to 4.500 farmers, but also gives special attention to important subjects as gender equality, the implementation of clean energy and the active support of climate action.

Main Products

Our project mainly supplies organic long rice, jasmine rice, palm sugar and spices which are sourced with a large focus on taste, authenticity and sustainability. Our ingredients from Cambodia have a large variety of destinations in the food industry. In combination with its additional range of parboiled rice and rice derivatives, Doens Food provides many options for custom tailored ingredients.

Kazakhstan in General

The climate of Northern Kazakhstan is comparable to the Canadian prairie region, with strong winters and dry stable summers. The land has been untouched for years since farming without the use of pesticides and fertilizers has always been the norm. Kazakhstan’s traditional grain business is striving towards more diversification of the crop production by reducing the proportion of traditional grains. New product groups like oilseeds and pulses are becoming more popular. In addition to that, organic farming is becoming very popular in Kazakhstan.

Doens Food‘s connection with Kazakhstan

Doens Food has been present in Kazakhstan for 10 years, importing organic products such as wheat, lentils, oats, barley, soybean, sunflower and flaxseed. We established a Kazakhstani company, to ensure the presence of our own people, working with the farmers directly and ensuring proper controls. The team is not only focusing on trade activities, but also assists the farmers with organic certification, advises on organic farming methods, performs sampling/quality checks and organizes the logistics from farm to Europe and North America. Doens Food guarantees the organic status and quality of our products from field to customer.

Main Products

The most important products we source in Kazakhstan are flaxseed, high pro wheat, pulses and mustard. The flaxseed in Kazakhstan is considered the best in the world and finds its way to top oil producing companies and food industry. The wheat from Kazakhstan is well known for its excellent specs for the milling industry with very high protein levels and stable baking qualities. Over the last years there has been an increased production of pulses like peas, beans, lentils and chickpeas in Kazakhstan. These products are high in protein, fiber and various vitamins, provide amino acids and are hearty crops.

Drying sesame

Uganda in General

The moderate tropical climate has become Uganda’s main reason for being one of the most fertile countries in Africa. The cultivation of sesame seeds does not require a large amount of soil and does not need any fertilizer, which makes it an ideal product for organic farming. In fact, the country is one of Africa’s most rapidly growing countries, which are organic certified and now belongs to the top 20 producers and exporters of sesame seeds in the world.

Doens Food’s connection with Uganda

Through the project in Uganda, Doens Food provides fundamental financial and educational support to 35.000 organic certified farmers and their families. Taking into account that the average Ugandan family exists of 10 persons, our support affects up to almost half a million Ugandan people. Our farmers receive professional assistance which not only boosts their productivity, but also provides a fair and profitable income with guaranteed acquisition.

Main Products

Our project mainly sources organic sesame seeds, chia seeds and bird’s eye chili pepper, which are, due to our full control of the product chain, always subject to strict quality supervision. Organic sesame consists 50% oil and 25% proteins and is mainly used in oil pressing and baking, but also serves as a very suitable ingredient for sesame pastes. The cakes that are left after oil pressing make an excellent high protein feed for poultry and livestock. With its in-house sterilizing and roasting facility, Doens Food always guarantees a 100% safe product that can be adjusted to any specific requirement.

Experts in

Organic grains

GrainsDoens Food distributes a wide variety of organic grains to the organic food & feed industry. In our organic range we supply the traditional organic milling wheat, spelt and barley, but also organic quinoa, buckwheat, millet and many more. Over the years we have noticed a change in the demand of our customers for alternative grains. Doens Food tries to respond to this change by enlarging and renewing its product range.

12

Seeds

Our broad range of organic seeds can be used as ingredients in mixes, bakery products, snacks, cereal mixes and many other consumer goods. Many of our organic seeds are delivered straight from our sourcing projects. Organic chia and sesame are supplied straight from our project in Uganda and from our cooperation in Kazakhstan we deliver organic flaxseed. These local cooperations and projects allow Doens Food to offer the customer full transparency and traceability in the supply chain.

Variety of organic pulses

PulsesOur product range contains an extensive variety in organic certified pulses. Organic lentils, beans and peas are becoming increasingly popular in the consumer market, due to their high nutritional value. Pulses are an excellent supplement in vegetarian or vegan diets, but can also be used for products like falafels, flakes, pasta and ready-made meals.

Herbs & spicesDoens Food supplies a unique variety of organic herbs and spices. Organic herbs and spices is a rather new but fast growing category in the Doens Food product portfolio. The sourcing of herbs and spices is directly done in our own projects in Uganda and Cambodia and includes bird’s eye chilis, vanilla and pepper. In countries like India, Italy, Greece, Turkey and Egypt we source curcuma, cinnamon, oregano etc. This way Doens Food tries to provide color and flavor from all over the world in an ethical way and with full traceability to the source.

Oils & Fats

Sunflower

in Kazakhstan

A wide range of organic vegetable oils, such as organic sunflower oil, can be supplied for a multitude of applications. In addition, we also offer a selection of specialty organic vegetable oils, such as rapeseed oil, avocado oil and coconut fat. Our vegetable oils are commonly used as a cooking oil or as an ingredient in products such as margarines, spreads, confectionary products, cosmetics and more.

17

Flours & StarchesWe can supply a broad range of innovative, organic plant-based flours. Due to their nutritional value, these organic alternative flours are becoming a popular ingredient in bread, cookies and snacks, or as a thickener in soups and sauces. Many of our organic flours are an excellent gluten-free alternative to wheat flour. In our modern production facility in IJzendijke we mill the sourced products, such as organic chickpeas, ourselves. This way we can offer our customer full traceability from source to flour.

Animal feed

Our organic animal feed is sourced through carefully selected and screened suppliers. We exclusively work together with well-known suppliers to guarantee the desired quality for our customers. Organic animal feed is also sourced through our own project in Kazakhstan. For this reason, we have full traceability and transparency all the way back to the farm level. We perform quality controls on all ingredients in our animal feed, in accordance with the strictest guidelines, and undertake extensive residue checks at origin and upon delivery. In addition to these services, we provide efficient logistics and deliveries straight from our EU warehouses.

Proteins

Vegan protein sources

Doens Food supplies a lot of different organic proteins such as rice, mung, soy, chickpeas and potato protein. The interest in following vegetarian or vegan diets or reducing the use of animal products, is increasing tremendously. A shift away from animal products is getting easier when more fortified and nutritious plant-based foods are available. Protein can be found in a wide range of food. The best combination of protein sources depends on the region of the world, access, cost, amino acid types and nutrition balance.

20

Nuts

Cashew tree

We supply a wide variety of organic certified nuts to the food industry. Packed with protein, essential oils and minerals, our organic nuts are an important ingredient in many health foods. Our range of organic nuts can be used in trail mixes, breakfast cereals, energy bars and more. In Cambodia we started a project for organic cashews and peanuts, which offers the possibility to deliver and process straight from the source.
