Product description

Are you looking for a supplier that delivers high-quality shallots without delivery delays? Then The Onion Group is your perfect match. With us, you’re guaranteed reliable delivery of the finest shallots grown in Dutch soil.

The mild flavor of shallots complements every dish

Shallots are unique in flavor compared to other onion varieties. While most onions are known for their dominant, sharp taste, shallots are sweeter and milder. This versatility makes them suitable for any dish. They pair perfectly with fish, meat, and cold dishes like salads. Our shallots are also an excellent addition to marinades or vinaigrettes. The unique shallot flavor gives every dish the perfect finishing touch.

A wide assortment of shallots to explore

Red, yellow, or demi-long shallots: they’re all part of The Onion Group’s assortment. Would you like to surprise your customers with a unique hybrid between an onion and a shallot: the banana shallot? You’ll find this variety with us too.

We also offer organic variants of almost all our onions. Try our organic red shallots or our organic yellow shallots, for instance. During the cultivation process of these onions, we let nature do its work as much as possible. You can taste the difference.

The advantages you’ll experience with The Onion Group

Our extensive assortment of shallots is of the highest quality for these three reasons:

  1. We manage our entire production. We handle the complete process, from onion cultivation to final product.
