More about Wim

I worked as an auctioneer at Royal FloraHolland but made the switch to UFO-Supplies, where the family feeling reigns supreme. Here I will deal with the preservative Florissant with the aim of expanding this brand and convincing the horticultural sector that Florissant is the best care for your flower, from harvest to vase.

John de Wit

Sales & Advice

More about John

If you grow up like me on a typical Dutch export company of tulip bulbs, you learn the do’s and don’ts of export from an early age. After my training at the Agricultural College of Applied Sciences, I worked for more than 25 years in the cut flower industry at the flower auction and at a production company of plant material. I have visited many nurseries around the world which improved and still improve my so called “green fingers” every day.“Green” in the sense of sustainability is my mission, it is my task to coordinate this within UFO Supplies with our suppliers and customers.
