ABOUT CMP INTERNATIONAL

CMP is a horticultural Producer Organisation (PO) that markets and sells produce on behalf of our growers across Ireland and the EU.

Established over 25 years ago to support Irish mushroom growers, we’ve seen the industry evolve from small-scale production to where it is today – a thriving industry that makes up 42% of Irish horticultural food exports. 

Our organisation had a pivotal role in driving this change, and we’re still driven by a determination to grow a competitive industry that produces the highest quality produce for consumers. 

 

 
 
 
 

While mushrooms are still a major crop among our members, we also support growers of other eligible horticultural crops as part of our commitment to the wider fruit and vegetable sector. We are now a recognised fruit and vegetable PO under the EU Fruit and Vegetable Scheme. 

Our business has expanded to include soft fruits, baby leaf salad and herbs – produce with a very different production system but that shares similar customers and challenges. Together, we will be able to learn and improve our production and marketing approaches. 

Headquartered in Co. Monaghan we currently represent 19 growers and are the largest group of employers in the Irish horticulture industry. In 2021, our sales figures exceeded €117,000,000. 

Our members benefit from being in the oldest and most established PO in Ireland, receiving technical advice and assistance, packaging, training, and on-farm investment as part of our ongoing programme. 

A passion for excellence and a desire to achieve a sustainable future for everyone involved in our industry and for our planet, underlies everything we do.
