’We were lucky to find some new markets’

The Nordic Flower Expo which will be held from 21 to 23 March 2017 in Malmö, Sweden, has recently been taken over by The Floral Agency (BureauSierteelt.nl). As a result the event will be set up in the same way as done in Poland; in close cooperation with local parties. The platform will have a broad support and more reach by doing so. Next to that an extended side program with floral demonstrations will be organised as well as relevant seminars.

In May this year, Dutch exporters of flowers and plants increased the lead over last year and increased their export up to the end of May to EUR 2.8 billion. Following a boost of more than 7% in May, this rounds off to an increase of 3%. The Association of Wholesalers in Flower Nursery Products (VGB) announced an increase in sales of cut flowers, as well as sales of potted and garden plants.
