One of the world's greatest challenges is making food
production more sustainable. Our company is a major player in the
international market and as such we have take on our
responsibility. That's why The Greenery has made sustainable
cultivation a key focus area of our business
operations.
Supporting innovation
Good ideas often arise in a practical context, in places where
they can be applied. The Greenery supports growers who innovate in
a sustainable manner. They can be assured of our help in testing,
developing and implementing their ideas. Since early 2010 we have
awarded Growers favourably distinguishing themselves in the area of
sustainability with the qualification 'Nature Counts'.

protection agents as much as possible. We encourage our growers to
use natural alternatives, where possible. We provide information,
advice and support.

Sharing information
As a trading organization, we occupy a central position in the

information- to sow successful ideas on sustainability so that
these can find fertile ground everywhere.
