The potato is a staple of the weekly shopping basket of Irish consumers. Containing a variety of vitamins and minerals potatoes can be boiled, steamed, mashed, fried or baked. Along with growing our own potatoes, K&K Produce has dedicated growers throughout the country. We also import a variety of Cyprian, French and Italian potatoes to provide consumers with a quality, flavourful potato.
