Internal Red tomatoes have been developed by Rijk Zwaan, and are recognised* by an attractive deep red internal colour. In addition “Internal Red” labelled varieties must meet standard selection criteria including excellent flavour.

Internal Red also has clear benefits for the fresh cut industry as well, improving the visual appeal of sliced and chopped tomatoes in prepared food such as sandwiches and salads.
