Abundant Produce, a specialist seed supplier has bred tough tomatoes that can sweat out Pakistan's summer and "cutecumbers" that need little water, and now the company is planting itself on the Australian Securities Exchange.

Abundant Produce specializes in developing seeds that can grow in extreme conditions.

"We are breeding under quite extreme conditions and we put our breeding populations through the stress of hot and cold," Abundant Produce chief executive Graham Brown told AAP.

The company's tomatoes can survive 50 degree temperatures thanks to a bit of outback muscle, combining a standard tomato with the Australian bush variety.

Abundant is expected to list next week at an issue price of 20c a share, giving the Sydney-based outfit an estimated market capital around $9 million.
