Partnership
Van der Knaap and Premier Tech had enjoyed a strong relationship for years and had already been working together successfully. Both companies are driven by a shared vision of collaboration, innovation, and sustainability. This formed the basis for further collaboration between Van der Knaap and Premier Tech’s Growers and Consumers Group, through which the company operates in the horticulture sector and offers a wide range of products and services.
What does this mean?
This partnership offers many opportunities in the areas of product development, production, market approach and international growth. It contributes to the continuity and sustainability of the solutions we offer. It also brings together the expertise, technologies and product portfolios of both companies and expands access to innovation opportunities in North and South America, Europe and Asia.
Working together enables us to offer our customers even greater value. Growers will gain access to broader expertise and capabilities, a wider range of growing media and comprehensive support for innovation in (greenhouse) horticulture. In addition, our customers will eventually benefit from even better delivery reliability and access to more technical knowledge.
The next step
Both companies - with Van der Knaap as part of Premier Tech - will be collaborating more closely and working together more frequently in the coming years. You might have noticed Van der Knaap’s logo now also features a link to Premier Tech.
