High quality, efficient processes, and long-standing experience: The traditional convenience food producer Gartenfrisch Jung GmbH from Germany has been relying on KRONEN machines to process fruit, vegetables, and salad leaves for many years. Its ready-to-eat convenience products range from salad mixes and bowls to foodtainers and are supplied to customers throughout Germany. 

With the KRONEN GS 10-2 belt cutting machine, yuca (also maniok or cassava) can be processed precisely and gently. The cut maniok roots are then used to produce snacks similar to traditional potato chips. 

A supermarket chain in the U.S. has installed several processing lines from KRONEN to enable the efficient production of fresh-cut products.

The processing of bell pepper and cabbage involves high demands in terms of both cutting quality and performance. The KUJ HC-220 cube, strip & slice cutting machine meets these requirements reliably and is designed specifically for high processing volumes.

Growing demands when washing salad leaves and vegetables: Every day, fresh-cut processors face the challenge of washing products gently and removing dirt, insects, and foreign particles. Due to the limited use of pesticides, the number of insects found on raw produce is increasing.

KRONEN is looking back on a successful business year in 2025. With a total of 22 million euros, the company based in Kehl am Rhein and Achern, Germany, was yet again able to record the highest turnover in its corporate history. In 2025, like every year, KRONEN also honored its long-standing employees and continued to focus on providing vocational training in-house in a system that has now been in place for more than 25 years.

To produce agar-agar, seaweed must be washed thoroughly and then shredded – which is precisely where KRONEN machines come into play.

After attracting a great deal of international interest, we are pleased to look back on a successful appearance at the Fruit Logistica 2026 trade show in Berlin. Here, KRONEN presented a world premiere alongside a multitude of established innovative solutions for the industrial processing of fruit, vegetables, salad leaves, and other fresh foods.

The company KRONEN GmbH from the German town of Kehl has again supported the SOS Children’s Village Black Forest in Sulzburg with a donation totaling 4,000 euros.
