How do you look back on the construction period?‘Very good , we get a very pleasant cooperation with Havecon and the contractors from Voorwinden . There were a number of critical moment during construction when Havecon and we had to exchange gears , such as when design the 26 - academic degree glass deck of cards . Because they work so severely , even during the extreme wintertime and wet conditions , we had that on every Wednesday ,   fried Pisces   with remoulade sauce was pertly picked up and distributed by our girl Yoni to all the builder . It kept rain for many weeks and kg of   fry Pisces went through , but the appreciation of all the constructor was enormous .

What has changed for you since the arrival of the new greenhouse compare to the billet as it was last year?‘The unexampled glasshouse offers us heartsease of nous and more product capacitance . In the retiring period there has been a restless time , partly due to Covid , because of the changing marketplace . For example , we are working towards special days such as Mother ’s Day , Valentine ’s Day and Halloween . We now have more possibilities in the electrical capacity , which gives us more rest , blank space to go towards these days . The new glasshouse enables us to move with the market in a more flexible manner .

An extra advantage of the new greenhouse is the minimal leverage of flatulence , especially with the current gas Price , which is a huge advantage . The double screening also lead greatly to this , allowing us to produce even more sustainably .

Meanwhile , the first crop of Santini ’s has been harvest and that went well , but we still had to monitor it very tight because this happened while the construction was still in full cut . So we carried out extra checks to ensure the quality . Now that the greenhouse is almost completed , except for a few item , we can process towards take the entire 3.3 hectare into enjoyment . '
