MorgenLand is the brand of EgeSun GmbH & Co. KG, based in Achim near Bremen. The company trades in plant-based organic products such as nuts and kernels, dried fruits, coconut products, freeze-dried fruits, snacks, fruits in jars, as well as pulses and seeds. The raw materials come from certified organic cultivation (EU Organic Regulation, partly Naturland and Demeter) and are processed in close, long-term cooperation with partner farms in the growing regions. MorgenLand accompanies the entire value chain from cultivation through processing to the shelf, develops its own organic cultivation projects (among others in Burkina Faso, Mali, Kyrgyzstan and Togo), provides advance financing for raw materials and supports partners with certifications. The product range is aimed at the organic specialty retail trade, bulk consumers and gastronomy, as well as bulk goods (from approx. 700 kg per pallet) for large-scale buyers.
