Working in our team
Solynta is a relatively small company. That's why everyone's input matters. And cooperation, helpfulness and commitment to each other are high on the agenda. Our goal to have a positive impact on the potato chain connects us, whatever our background and education. We are all excited to make a difference and to develop, produce and sell fantastic new potato varieties from true seed worldwide.
