Tozer Seeds Ltd.

Tozer Seeds is the UK’s largest independent vegetable breeding company. For over 70 years we have introduced and supplied many of the novel and improved vegetable varieties familiar to growers today. Working with both UK and international growers, Tozer Seeds has built a reputation for breeding top quality market leading vegetable varieties across a wide range of species.


The family owned and independent status of Tozer Seeds allows the company to be responsive to the ever changing requirements of growers and consumers.
