First experience visiting a sauerkraut factory for few diplomats was recently organised by Ms Maja C. Steenwijk Groot on the picture together with H.E. Hiroshi Inomata, Ambassador of Japan and spouse Ms. Midori Inomata, and Mr. Boris Zhilko, Deputy Minister at the Embassy of Russia.
5,000 tons of sauerkraut are processed every year and then shipped throughout France, Europe and even to the United States. These products consist for more than 90% of cabbage grown on the fertile fields in the northern part of the Dutch province North Holland.
