Tozer
Tozer is a successful, independent, vegetable plant breeding company based in the UK. We market our seeds around the world and have established businesses in the USA, Holland and Spain. We remain a family-owned business, we cherish our traditions, whilst being committed to continuous innovation. We believe that our success is down to three fundamental things: our innovative plant breeding, the consistent quality of our seeds and the passion of our people. We are committed to our customers; we seek to develop successful long-term relationships with them based on honesty and openness. We are small, so our lines of communication are short, this means that we react to our customers’ needs quickly. We believe this sets us apart from many other seed companies.
Our Seeds
Whilst we breed new varieties at our home in the UK, our seeds are produced all over the world. In this way we ensure that we maximise the potential of our varieties and produce the highest quality seed. For us this is the absolute key to our success and we always strive to achieve this goal.
Plant Breeding at Tozer
From the very beginning Tozer Seeds was focused on developing new and improved varieties of vegetables. Through the work of our breeders we became the first company in the world to produce commercial F1 celery and parsnip varieties. We were amongst the very first to produce F1 hybrid leek. We also developed an entirely new and unique vegetable, the Kalette
Our breeding and selection work takes place in both the UK and Spain. This means we are able to develop varieties suitable for different climatic conditions. Our core focus is on celery, parsnip, leek, wild rocket, cepa salad onion and kale. We aim to develop world class varieties of these products. But of course, we have produced excellent varieties of other species as well. We have recently built a new Innovation Centre at our UK headquarters. This allows us to improve our plant breeding techniques by utilising the very latest technology.
Our work with G's
Tozer has been a close partner of G's for a long time, the world’s first F1 hybrid celery varieties were developed by us working hand in hand with G's. Aside from celery we also provide G's with seed of the latest spinach and beetroot varieties.
Our work with G's links across the UK, Spanish and mainland European production areas.
