THE NEW IDENTITY

“When you always deliver work at a leading level, you sometimes don’t see how exceptional that is. Now is the time to let the world see our major impact on floriculture with our products, brands and incomparable strength. Our new motto: Stay critical and modest, but talk about what you’ve achieved more often. Join the debate and take the people into the future. And show how visionary we are by nature.”

CORPORATE IDENTITY MOVIE

Having a strong corporate branding allows us to be more recognizable and visible throughout the entire supply chain and stakeholders, but also for internal and employer branding purposes. In doing so, we have also updated our communication strategy (www.mnpflowers.com), to reach out not only to propagators and growers as we did but also to exporters, wholesale, (online) retail and even consumers. Eventually, we can market our future genetics faster and more efficiently. Says Erwin Giezen – Head Marketing, Communications & Trade.
