Strawberry plant propagator chooses Agriware 365

Flevoplant, specialist in the propagation of strawberry plants: "We need to merge five different software programs to all-in-one ERP platform Agriware 365."

At Agriware, we work with many fast-growing customers who are seeking options to streamline their business processes so that they become more efficient and effective. Flevoplant is such a company: a leading strawberry young plant propagator. We visited this fascinating propagator in Ens, The Netherlands, and talked with managing director Anton Koops about their organization and why Agriware 365 is a good fit.

“We grow about 70 million plants on a yearly basis, 35 million tray plants and 35 million of bare rooted plants”, says Anton Koops, director at Flevoplant, while showing us around in one of the greenhouses. 50,000 square meters of tray plants surround us: an impressive sight. “This is where we propagate our plants. We set up the mother plants in February, we cut the plants in July and make the tray plants as you can see here.”

Five different programs that don't really fit together
“Until this moment we were using about five different management programs. I am talking about separate programs for logistics, stock, sales, finance and customer care, to give some examples. Most of these programs don’t really fit together, so unfortunately, errors sometimes occur.” Anton continues: “This was the reason we started to look for a new system and started to see what new opportunities there are in the market. There were colleagues elsewhere who already worked with Agriware 365 at that time, so that was one of the reasons why we thought: let’s see what Agriware can bring us.”
