Specialist in Fresh Vegetables
Axel Månsson A/S is one of the larger producers of organic vegetables and organic eggs in Scandinavia. With a constant focus on the soil, the plants, and animal welfare, Axel Månsson has been a dedicated farmer since 1976. The company keeps an eye on tomorrow’s needs and is constantly evolving. The product range is continuously expanded as market demand develops.
Since 1976, the farm has grown from 43 hectares to approximately 2,100 hectares today (2026), the vast majority of which is cultivated organically. Axel Månsson A/S is Denmark’s largest producer of iceberg lettuce, but also produces a very wide range of other vegetable crops such as onions, romaine lettuce, celery, broccoli, pointed cabbage, white cabbage, kale, fennel, pak choi, and many, many others.
Production and Product Development
Product development begins with trial production of new species and new varieties every year. Based on these trials, we determine whether the specific species/variety can be produced organically on sandy soil in Brande. Customers are invited to see and taste the products; samples and smaller batches are sent to customers for commercial testing, and the farm shop is also used as a test store and showroom.
Convenience
Convenience products in the form of whole, peeled onions have been part of the range for many years, and this segment continues to develop—also including diced and sliced peeled onions. All products are delivered in a variety of pack sizes and in both organic and conventional versions.
Openness
The farm is characterized by a high level of openness towards the public. Guided tours, professional presentations, and workshops can be booked. A well-stocked organic farm shop has been opened in a former henhouse, and an organic farm café is also underway.
Sustainable Production
Axel Månsson works with sustainability and circular production, for example by being self-sufficient in nutrients. An organic biogas plant converts biomass into green gas, and the digested biomass is used as valuable fertilizer for the vegetables. Sustainability is a focus at every stage of production. The latest technology is used, for example in weed control and in the vegetable packing facility. Monitoring and analyses are employed to ensure efficient use of supplied resources as well as full traceability. We continuously strive to ensure that our customers receive fresh, high-quality products produced with the greatest possible consideration for the environment and climate at every stage.
