Last calendar week the HortiContact show took place in Gorinchem , the Netherlands . For many supplier focusing on the European market , this is the last one of the hattrick : IPM Essen , Fruit Logistica and then the HortiContact , with the first for the floriculture industry , the 2nd for the European vegetable raiser and the last one in the main focusing on the Dutch mart . The Dutch grocery store testify to be democratic among outside suppliers as well , but it ’s not gentle to gain ground there .
Over the last duad of age more and more suppliers have observe their way to the Netherlands . The Israeli troupe Paskal has offer their weighing solutions to Dutch growers for quite some years now and the same goes for Agrifast , helping Dutch agriculturist with their labor solution Tom System . In the last couple of years more companies bulge out their European endeavor from the Netherlands or opened a speculation focalise on the Dutch market specifically , with Dutchies get together their team as well . This includes several light-emitting diode companies : BLV , Fluence , Megaphoton , for example .

Yet starting up a business or starting to do business organization in the Netherlands is not too easy . Just dropping by there once a year is not enough - it take knowledge of the market place and some time before agriculturalist trust a unexampled supplier . Also the language roadblock might be an emergence : speaking Dutch is not require , but it is a big reward . In addition , due to the character of the show , that ’s mainly about connection and meeting up with friends from the manufacture , not all visitor are very keen on claver a new company - although if the product seems interesting enough , they for sure will give it a go .
