SUSTAINABILITY

ECOLOGICAL

Andeshandel was started in 2018 by Alejandro Aguilar. He grew up in Bolivia, where he took a master's degree in International Trade. He has lived in Norway since 2015.

"Back to the  traditional and real way"

 

Now he wants to share the experience of returning to the traditional and simple way of cooking, which he himself grew up with. The whole process from touching, smelling and tasting the quinoa seed.


Alejandro created a business plan, and presented it during a pitch competition organized by Charge AS. Here, Alejandro and Andelshandel won a place in the Charge Incubator program, and since then he followed his dream of creating his own workplace by offering the nutritious quinoa seed to the Norwegian market.

Andeshandel is a company founded in Norway / EU, and specializes in the sale of Andean seeds such as quinoa according to the needs and requirements of specialist shops, restaurants, hotels, bakeries and supermarkets.

Sustainability

The chemical composition of our soils converts the foods we offer you into energy that nourishes: real nutritious products that are 100% suitable for vegans, gluten-free and non-GMO, among other properties.

With eight control phases, we guarantee the traceability policy since the raw material leaves the fields, arrives at our plant and ends up in your store.

The farmers who work with us are trained and receive continuous feedback and support from our technical staff to improve yields and ensure soil protection of their land.
