Beyond quality control
If the quality of your fruit is not up to your standards, you need more than just a few parameters and graphics about the condition and quality of your produce. You want to know your next steps. HDG implemented a unique advising module based on over 40 years of experience and in-depth knowledge. We identify causes and diseases to advise you about market value, repacking and storage. All in one simple report.
Jordy Fens
Quality Controller HDG
"What makes a good quality controller? Experience. You can only learn by investing time. Work with experienced colleagues, read about new developments and most of all: train your senses. After eighteen years, I know directly after opening a box if a product smells, looks and feels right.
I can tell on the spot if there was a transport problem or a pre-harvest issue. I identify the cause of the decay and if my client should repack, is able to store it or if there is any effect on its commercial value. It takes time to do so, but if you're able to go beyond quality control, it gives a thrill to become the best at it."
