Through the business units Queen Genetics, which is one of the top providers of Kalanchoe genetics and cuttings worldwide, and Queen Flowers, which produces, markets, and sells finished plants across Europe, the company is committed to quality and innovation and has become a trusted name in the industry.
Pligt Professionals, based in the Netherlands, is a well-established production company known for its dedication to nurturing and cultivating high-quality plants. With more than 100 years of experience and a reputation for excellence in horticulture, Pligt Professionals is one of the top growers in Europe.
As a Brand Partner, Pligt Professionals will work closely with the growers, sales, and marketing teams at Queen to grow and market the well-known Kalanchoe flowers of the highest quality under the brand name Queen Flowers.
Pligt Professionals has the experience and facilities to grow the cuttings from Queen Genetics into finished 14 cm plants, and customers throughout Europe can benefit from even higher accessibility to Kalanchoe varieties in this pot size.
The introduction will take place during the Trade Fair in Aalsmeer, where several exclusive varieties from Queen Genetics will be presented at the Pligt Professionals stand.
