The main destinations for our roses are Holland, Germany, UK, France, Switzerland and Scandinavian Countries. Other regions include USA, Middle East, & the Far East.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?
The foundations and pillars upon which the company was founded have been the driving force and key to our success over the years.
At the core of our business is customer-eccentricity. From start to finish our customer requirements are paramount of our concerns. Rose varieties are carefully selected to meet the dynamic and individual market needs.
We are also backed with the best team to handle both technical and non-technical issues. Our qualified technical team oversees all areas of plant maintenance and disease control. All our green house staff are trained on scouting to detect diseases and pests at the earliest stage to minimize chemical use. Post-Harvest treatment, per-cooling, grading and packing are implemented by our team of well experienced staff who ensure that only flowers of required specification and quality reach our customers.
"Take care of your employees well and they will in turn take care of your customers" is a principle we have employed in our company. We value our employees as one of our most important assets for the continued success of our company. As part of our social policies and commitment to our employees, the company provides the work force with medical care, housing, transport, social amenities, protective clothing and ongoing training.
