Oriental mushrooms was born in 2018 out of the dream to locally grow Eryngii mushrooms using the advanced Korean bottle technology. This dream came true in 2018 when the Mitrofresh team brought together a group of South Korean and Kosovar investors, developers and experts. A similar strategy to Hirano was implemented as -again- production of compost and the improvement of myscellia is fully contolled and done on-site.

Indoor mushroom cultivation

* EST 2023
  • Location: Rhenen e.o
  • Company type: Agriculture indoor growing
  • Employees: 3

Mitrofresh has developed innovative containers were mushrooms are grown within a controlled environment. In collaboration with Mobi Mushroom and farm shop Hans Ravensbergen we started Shiitake plug & play production in Rhenen on November 9th 2023.

Advantages of the plug & play growth container are that it is easy, quick and continuous. No building permit is needed, no foundation and no large installations. No bureaucracy.

This innovation originates from our core value to cultivate with impact at origin: Sustainable, efficient and local. The entire Dutch agricultural sector faces many challenges, including climate change, land shortage, protein transition and environmental pressures. Growing mushrooms in containers provides an answer to these challenges and delivers a lot of benefits:

Sustainability: Growing mushrooms in containers can significantly reduce water consumption, and there is little to no emission of harmful substances.

Efficiency: The controlled environment of the container ensures optimal growing conditions, maximising production capacity.

Quality: Consumers can enjoy high-quality, flavourful mushrooms with consistent quality throughout the year.

Local: By growing the mushrooms locally, we reduce the need for long-distance transport, which reduces the ecological footprint. The project also creates an additional revenue model for local farmers, thus having a positive impact on the local economy.

Healthy: Mushrooms are rich in nutrients, such as vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and they are naturally low in calories and fat, offering immune support.

Protein transition: Mushrooms offer an excellent meat alternative for vegetarians and vegans, allowing them to enjoy a protein-rich food.
