Headed cabbage

Pointed cabbage
A Specialty of Hazera! Pointed cabbage became increasingly popular with rapid growth in demand noticed in several countries during recent years. This easily recognizable product is mainly consumed fresh due to its excellent taste, tender leaves and ease of preparation.

Savoy Cabbage
Savoy cabbage was only developed around the 16th century and historically used as a winter product. In most cases it can tolerate frost and snow very well. Hazera developed a range of savoy cabbage varieties with different maturing days, enabling harvesting of
fresh produce over an extended period of time.
