"For many farmers, certain carrots are not the right length," says Carsten Abenhardt, Managing Director of the company of the same name. Between 10 and 15% of its carrots are too long for the 21cm long bowls. "At the end of the day we have a use for everything," says Abenhardt. The retail trade is a cooperative and one part of the carrots will be cut for fresh salads, and another part will be packed in bags. The quality of the produce is good; it is only the size that is problematic.
