who we are
New Zealand’s Leader in Seed Potato Production
Producing high-quality seed potatoes is a long and carefully managed process — often taking up to six years before a new variety reaches your plate. At Alex McDonald Ltd, we oversee this journey from start to finish.
World-Class Facilities
Tissue cultures, plantlets and tubers are carefully cultivated in our purpose-built glasshouse in Christchurch.
Enduring Partnerships
Relationships matter. We’ve also cultivated great relationships with the best international breeders and local growers.
Innovation
Quality Assurance with The Pathogen Tested Scheme
Viruses and pests can weaken crops, reduce yields, and compromise quality. That’s why, since the 1970s, Alex McDonald Ltd has led the way in ensuring every potato starts strong, through The Pathogen Tested Scheme.
