De Nederlandse Aardappel Organisatie (NAO) heeft aardappelhandelsbedrijf W.J. Westhoeve en Zonen in het Zuid-Hollandse Ouddorp geschorst als lid.

De NAO vindt dat het handelsbedrijf het belang van de vereniging in ernstige mate heeft geschaad doordat het bedrijf illegaal pootaardappelen produceerde en verhandelde.

De fraude is ontdekt door Breeders Trust, de opsporingsorganisatie van acht Europese handelshuizen.
