En menos de diez años se espera que el mercado global de productos procesados de papa supere los 62 mi millones de dólares. Un crecimiento anual de más del 5%.

Clarebout Potatoes, a top Belgian frozen fries producer, is in advanced talks with US giant J.R. Simplot for a major deal, possibly worth billions. The move could expand both firms’ global reach amid rising industry competition.

The Manitoba potato industry — from seed producers to those who grow the main crops — is scrambling to adjust to news that the companies they supply are slashing orders, leaving them facing potentially huge losses.

Four major potato processing companies, McCain Foods, Cavendish Farms, Lamb Weston, and J.R. Simplot, are accused of price-fixing in a class-action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court.

The J.R. Simplot Company has named G.Rey Reinhardt as President of its AgriBusiness Group. Reinhardt will take over for Doug Stone who announced his retirement earlier this year.

The processed potatoes market size is forecast to increase by USD 45 billion at a CAGR of 5.34% between 2024 and 2028. Market expansion is contingent on several factors, such as an increasing emphasis on expanding production capacities for potato processing.

A sustainable business. A healthy planet. A responsibility to all. Purposeful actions that benefit our world and the bottom line ensure successful operations at Simplot now and well into the future.

Se estima que para el 2031 el valor del mercado global de papas fritas supere los USD 92 mil millones. Esto supone un crecimiento de más del 50% con respecto a la valuación del mercado de 2021 realizada y publicada por allied market research en su estudio: "Frozen potato market".

Agronico, Tasmania’s largest seed potato producer, has entered into an agreement for Simplot to acquire the business and property assets of Agronico.
