Ohne Vertrieb keine Pilzzucht: Warum der Verkauf genauso wichtig ist wie die Produktion

No mushroom cultivation without sales: Why sales are just as important as production

Mushroom cultivation without distribution is like a restaurant without customers.
Anyone entering professional mushroom cultivation—whether a farmer, restaurant owner, or business owner—often initially focuses on technology, variety selection, and spatial concepts. However, without a functioning sales market, even the best facility remains unprofitable.

Mushroom cultivation is both production and marketing – both must fit together.

There is demand for regional gourmet mushrooms such as oyster mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and king oyster mushrooms – especially in direct marketing, the catering industry, the hotel industry, and quality-conscious retailers. But:

A central question of every investment is:
Where and how do I place my products?

Many people start too late here – and risk vacancies and lost potential.

Sales needs strategy – not hope.

Marketing is an integral part of mushroom cultivation – right from the start. That's why at Pilzfactory, we place great importance on providing our customers not only with a technically sophisticated facility, but also with the necessary understanding of the market.

Distribution channels can be:

  • Direct marketing from the farm or via markets

  • Supply to restaurants & hotels

  • Cooperations with organic box providers

  • Packaged online sales with refrigerated shipping
