GROEN-Direkt: a unique formula for 25 years

 

GROEN-Direkt has been internationally renowned for its continuous, complete range of garden plants for 25 years. The largest green market in Europe traditionally presents its Autumn Fair at the end of August – this year it will take place on Wednesday 25 and Thursday 26 August.

 

On top of a tremendous range of more than 5,500 unique batches, this will be a special edition of the fair, marking GROEN-Direkt’s 25th anniversary.

 

Four reasons why you should visit the company’s Autumn Fair:

 

1. Best of both worlds: a fair and a webshop

What makes GROEN-Direkt unique is its hybrid formula: the combination of sample fairs and a webshop enables the company to offer a wide, seasonally varying range of garden plants all the year round. Interested buyers can physically view, smell and feel the range at the Autumn Fair, or they can opt to order garden plants remotely via the webshop, where they’ll find easy-to-navigate surveys of the entire range accompanied by up-to-date sample photos.

 

2. Enormous range of garden plants and Christmas trees

GROEN-Direkt’s Autumn Fair is the ideal opportunity for you to buy your autumn range of garden plants! Besides presenting more than 5,500 unique batches, the fair will as usual also be paying lots of attention to novelties and sales concepts, and launching the exclusive presale of Christmas trees. Orders can be easily placed via the special ordering app on your tablet or mobile phone.  

 

3. New fair presentation

At its Autumn Fair, GROEN-Direkt will be introducing a new form of presentation on large benches. A number of plants of each batch will be presented on these raised benches, enabling the fair visitors to have a good look at the plants on all sides. The benches will make for an attractive fair presentation while providing a good view of the products, with the added advantage that the plants can be watered, so they will retain their good looks for longer.

 

 

4. GROEN-Direkt’s 25th anniversary

This year marks GROEN-Direkt’s 25th anniversary! Needless to say the company doesn’t want to let this historic event pass unnoticed, and would like to celebrate it together with its partners. So the anniversary will be the theme of the coming year’s events, starting with the Autumn Fair, where visitors will be treated to various festivities.

 

More information

GROEN-Direkt’s Autumn Fair will take place on 25 and 26 August at Noorwegenlaan 37, 2391 PW Hazerswoude, the Netherlands (ITC site). It is intended for traders and buyers from within and outside the Netherlands. Keep a close eye on GROEN-Direkt’s website or call +31 (0)172 21 15 76 for the latest information on the Autumn Fair, the sample fairs and the webshop.
