Elevating Saffron Production to New Heights

With Swedish Precision Automation

Our Journey

Established in the heart of Stockholm in 2021, BlueRedGold AB is the culmination of years of rigorous research and meticulous production trials.

In 2022, we achieved a groundbreaking milestone: the launch of the first-ever, industrial-grade, controlled indoor cultivation and year-round saffron production in Åkers Styckebruk, Sweden. This achievement was swiftly followed by our foray into the realms of robotics and automation, underscoring our commitment to innovation and precision.

BlueRedGold is Environmentally friendly Premium Saffron through automated hydroponic vertical indoor growing systems.

Presently, we delight in offering our exquisite saffron to a diverse range of clients worldwide. From esteemed establishments in the restaurant and food industries to partnerships with local entrepreneurs and gourmet connoisseurs, our saffron finds its way to discerning tables across the globe. Moreover, our commitment extends to nutraceuticals, supplements, and nutricosmetics, where we collaborate with experts to deliver premium products that cater to the health and wellness needs of our clientele.
