The business currently employs around 70 staff but the expansion will take that to 100.
The firm grows predominantly high end cherry tomatoes in a range of varieties, but the next phase enables growers to move into new territory and grow some larger varieties too.
The plants are propagated in Holland from seeds from Dutch seedhouses and arrive as eight-week-old plants.
These are trained up wires and replaced cyclically so that there is a seamless supply of fruit, which is then sold mainly into major supermarkets but also locally through its Suffolk Sweet Tomatoes arm. This is supplying around 13 shops in the Ipswich areas as well as wholesalers.
