Constantin Huet

Managing director & founder

Whilst working on a farm in Finland, agricultural graduate Constantin Huet was exposed to the harsh challenges that farmers face transitioning to organic agriculture. And simultaneously, as a consumer he felt priced out by the steep premiums charged for organic produce.

Constantin launched Pre-O in early 2019 as a 'win-win' solution that supports farmers during the organic transition period, whilst also democratizing healthy and sustainable produce for consumers.
