The activities of The Chip Group are made possible because of the awesome support we receive…
Potatoes NZ
Potatoes New Zealand Inc. represents the interests of the whole of New Zealand’s potato industry from growers to processors. New Zealand’s potato industry has more than 200 growers who produce around half a million tonnes of potatoes from just over 10,500 hectares of arable farmland.
“PNZ acknowledges that significant research has been undertaken to develop potato varieties that absorb less fat. This however, is totally negated if the chip is cooked by an unskilled operator. So the education that The Chip Group undertakes at this stage is crucial. The deep fried potato chip is a key part of NZ culture and it is great that work is being done to improve the health value by improving cooking techniques”
Mr Chips is a leading processor of potatoes in New Zealand and Australia, making over 25,000 tonnes of Premium A Grade frozen and chilled french fries and potato products annually. For more than 30 years, the Mr Chips brand has been a recognizable and popular brand in New Zealand.
“Mr Chips are totally committed to The Chip Group and are proud to be part of an organization that really cares about you, the consumer.”
