Growth aspiration in the Netherlands , Europe and North America"As far as the Netherlands is concerned , our nursing home base must remain solid to properly alleviate our current and next foreign offshoot , " says Lex . " If this requires growth , ( knowledge , FTEs , fitting , business acquisitions , etc . ) we will realise this . As for Europe , we are expanding our existing branch in Belgium . Van der Ende Belgium was founded last October partly for this ground and from there we are also looking at potential enlargement towards northern France ( also for our construction and catching activities).We are also keeping a close eye on developments in land such as England and Germany . The potential in these country is tremendous and boundary line on our home basis . That makes it economically very attractive . As for the ease of the humans , our 2d home base in Canada rest very interesting . Indeed , the area of greenhouses there is still increasing every class , and we do not predominate out a second location in the future . Furthermore , we have also recently start a seriously look into the potential in America and Mexico . "
So Van der Ende is firmly attached to ( international ) emergence , but it remains controlled . Lex : " We are growing fast . This year , I expect about 15 % growth , which is of course a peachy result . But at the same time , it is important that we manage the associated growing pains . After all , we do n’t want to hunt down the danger of constantly having to ' chase our own bum ' . "
Specialist knowledgeVan der Ende Group has determine its ambitious goal of being a cognition authorisation on pee solutions in greenhouse horticulture . They want to understand the customer ’s straightaway as well as latent motive . And with that , they set to make for to come up with fresh products and technology . Lex advert the word ' relevance ' a couplet of metre . They want to make a relevant share to the sector through helping the sphere to grow crop now and in the futurity within the give and require model .
The subject of noesis use up an important place in Van der Ende Group ’s philosophy . The philosophy menu , for instance , scan : " We are constantly develop and immersing ourselves in newfangled vogue and technologies to rest onward . For us , cognition is not something static , but a uninterrupted process of learning , apply and innovating " .
Some of the result they are now facing let in the increment in constitutive growing , rising disease pressure in dissimilar crops , and water shortage . This has so far result to their specialized ultrafiltration organisation ( Kathari ) and their high-pitched - performance reverse osmosis system ( Nexus HPRO ) , which are currently the showpieces at Van der Ende Group .
OrganizationTo better ensure the company ’s continuity , glasshouse horticulture is not the only sphere in which Van der Ende Group betroth . Construction and catching , ( semi ) government activity , and industriousness have now become authoritative sectors within the radical .

new wave der Ende Group seems like a nice achiever chronicle . So are there never any setbacks ? Lex : " Yes definitely . regrettably , there are . But those ' swimming frameworks ' within our company assist the company tremendously to recover from them . " Lex is extremely lofty of his employees . This is evident when he talks about the companionship . He values the commitment and dedication they systematically show . " That does us so much ripe and for certain helps in time of adversity . "

One of the dark days was , of form , the death of his father : Piet van der Ende . asunder from his begetter , Piet was also his wise man and bus . " I miss him , every day . How proud he would be to see the company now . We felt a lot of powerlessness and uncertainty in those day . And on the other hand , also have strength and connectedness among ourselves . And look at the company now … We could n’t have commit him a decent gift . "
