THE HOLDING COMPANY SUBA SEMENTI found its origin in the Romagna Region, in 1974. During the years the Company affirmed itself as one of the major seeds producers both in domestic and worldwide market, dealing with the production of standard OP varieties as well as Hybrid ones, using the stockseed supplied by its customers.
Always open-minded to new business opportunities, during the years, the Group put together its own activities establishing the Company SIPAS, specialized in packaging , the Company HORTUS, specialized in commercialisation of final products to retailers and large-scale retail dealers, with a sales network of more than 60 agents on the national territory, and in 2005 the Company SUBA FRANCE, created with the main target to increase and improve the production activity and to have a distribution platform in the centre of Europe.
Today, with the acquisition of new realities such as ROYAL SLUIS, becoming later ROYAL SEEDS s.r.l., focused on professional market, to the most recent establishment of SUBA ALIMENTARE s.r.l. dealing with food market, the Group has considerably grown, with a current turnover of over 60 Million Euros, becoming by now a concrete and consolidated reality, well-known on the worldwide market.
On 25th May 2011 the Holding SUBA SEEDS COMPANY S.p.A. was born. The new business organization has been necessary to answer to the expectations of a more and more exigent market, providing the Group with a more flexible, modern and integrated structure, and helping it to strengthen its Leading position in the production and marketing of vegetable seeds.
THE PRODUCTION The production activity is organized as follows:
. Management of multiplication contracts, even on a large scale, on behalf of the most important seeds companies in the world, using our own stockseeds or the ones supplied by the customers. . Own production of a very wide range of vegetable seed varieties, preserving the varietal purity of stockseeds, in order to satisfy the different requirements coming from customers all over the world.
SUBA SEEDS COMPANY S.p.A. makes use of production centers located both in Italy and abroad. The high standards of quality are granted by investments in technologically advanced structures and equipments. The use of the most modern machines for the seeds selection and processing, along with systems of dehumidification, disinfestation and treatment, allows to store the seeds at the right moisture level and to get a perfect conservation. The Group is in particular specialized in seed selection in order to reach a higher and higher purity, by the use of sophisticated machines for the sizing and the optical selection (based on seed colour).
THE PRODUCTION ORGANIC AND FOR SPROUTING SUBA SEEDS COMPANY S.p.A. was one of the first Italian companies to get the “Organic certification”. This kind of production is carried out, respecting the strict CEE regulations, in surfaces completely separated from the “traditional” production to guarantee products free from contamination. The whole cycle of organic production is carried out under the constant control of the Official Body C.C.P.B. Another part of the activity is the production of seeds for sprouting purposes, obtained both by conventional and organic agriculture. A particular attention is paid to these seeds in order to reach seeds with the highest possible germination power and healthiness.
THE LAB CONTROL In 2011 SUBA SEEDS COMPANY S.p.A. equipped itself with an internal laboratory, organized in a Microbiological Laboratory, for the control and identification of pathogens and deteriorating microorganisms through traditional instrumentation and a place dedicated to PCR REAL TIME, and in a Laboratory of Analysis and Quality test, for the control of features like GERMINATION – VIGOUR – PURITY – MOISTURE.
TRIAL FIELD From a varietal point of view a further control is carried out by placing every year test-demonstratives fields. All produced seeds are sowed during several periods of the year and compared with varieties of national and foreign origin, in order to keep a high varietal standard and to control the healthiness of plants. Our Trial Fields are at the disposal of customers for guided visits.
40 years of experience and the passion for our work, the Mission of our Group, led to have in Investments, Organisation and Human capital the keys of our success.
