Bosch Berries
in Kentucky
Premium, locally grown strawberries. 365 days a year.
In Somerset, Kentucky, we grow strawberries year-round for the U.S.-market. By combining advanced Dutch greenhouse expertise with American production, we deliver consistent quality, outstanding flavor and dependable supply to some of the country’s leading retailers.
Close to the market. Close to the consumer.
Strong logistics connections to cities like Louisville, Cincinnati and Atlanta ensure our strawberries move quickly from greenhouse to shelf. By growing close to the markets we serve, we reduce transit time, protect freshness and maintain tighter control over planning and performance.
Local production isn’t just a claim. It’s a supply chain advantage.
Dutch precision. American scale.
Our expansion into the United States was driven by clear demand. Retailers and consumers are looking for locally grown berries that are available year-round and deliver consistent taste and quality.
With decades of experience in controlled-environment agriculture, we bring precision and stability to the category. While field-grown strawberries can fluctuate in quality outside the local season, our greenhouse production delivers predictable volumes and consistent standards every month of the year. At the same time, we adapt our approach to local growing conditions, labor structures and the realities of the U.S. retail environment. It’s Dutch expertise, applied with an American mindset.
Flavor first. Control always.
In Kentucky, we grow ever bearing strawberries selected for flavor, aroma and shelf life. Each variety is chosen to deliver a consistent eating experience, whether purchased in peak summer or mid-winter.
Our growing environment is fully controlled. We manage climate, water and energy through data-driven systems and apply integrated pest management to maintain plant health and crop performance. Continuous optimization of yield and quality ensures we stay in control of volume, cost and supply planning.
For our retail partners, that translates into dependable programs, steady supply and premium locally grown strawberries available 12 months a year.
A team built to perform
Our Kentucky operation employs up to 100 people, with approximately 20 full-time team members. The organization includes specialists in growing, logistics, quality, (food) safety, HR, finance and maintenance.
Supplying leading U.S.-retailers
Our marketing in the United States is managed through Sunset. From Kentucky, we supply major supermarket chains including Costco, Meijer, Kroger and Sam’s Club.

We take that responsibility seriously.
Built for growth
We continue to invest in expansion, technology and sustainability to strengthen our position in the U.S. berry market. Our goal is clear: to be a trusted, year-round supplier of premium strawberries, grown locally and delivered with confidence.
