Beekenkamp Plants acquires Sunny Osteospermum breeding program
In the future, all breeding activities will take place at Beekenkamp Plants in the Netherlands, while part of the production of mother plants is done in Ethiopia. Thanks to the excellent relationship with the Danish company Gartneriet 3Kanten A/S, the production of unrooted cuttings will continue in Vietnam. Gartnerite 3Kanten A/S remains a partner of Beekenkamp Plants and will go on selling both cuttings and Sunny Osteospermum plants on the Scandinavian market.
Sunny owners Niels Larsen and Bjarne Nyholm Larsen are satisfied with the agreement: "Thanks to our partnership with Beekenkamp Plants, Sunny Osteospermum fits perfectly with this family business in Maasdijk. We are convinced that Beekenkamp Plants can successfully continue our breeding program."
Jesper Skjellerup Slot from Gartnerite 3Kanten adds: "Beekenkamp Plants is the right partner for us. We have made good agreements on intensive cooperation, which means that Sunny Osteospermum remains the most important product for us."
Director Marc Driessen of Beekenkamp Plants: "The in-house breeding is important for the future of Beekenkamp Plants and Sunny Osteospermum is a strong brand that fits our ambitions." We are pleased that our close collaboration with Gartneriet 3Kanten continues, which provides reliable information and continuity of sales in Scandinavia."
