Van der Plas is launching a new platform called Plant World. Through Plant World, florists and wholesalers have access to 1200 growers in 7 countries, enabling them to buy plants directly from the grower straight from the greenhouse. The platform provides access to thousands of species of plants via a renewed webshop. Van der Plas takes care of delivery in almost the whole of Europe within 48 hours. In this article Stefan Hoek, Purchasing Manager Plants, talks about the new possibilities.
Stefan: "Plant World will complement our existing, extensive fresh stock of plants. That stock is purchased daily at the flower auction and from the growers. Specialities, novelties and unique plants are delivered to you a day after the order is placed."
"You can order large quantities, but also per tray or even per plant! Repeat purchases and special prices during certain periods are guaranteed at Plant World. You therefore have the opportunity to buy from the grower, with the service and delivery of Van der Plas. We provide the transport from the grower to you."
The plant growers of Plant World are spread across 7 countries in Europe. The ordered plants will follow the shortest possible route in order to get from the grower to your shop as quickly as possible. The grower determines when is the best moment to offer the product via Plant World.
Stefan: "In addition, price agreements have been made with the growers per product for a longer period of time, which allows you to easily reorder your products."
