Why ExpoPlantas?
Given the magnitude of ExpoPlantas, it is without a doubt a growing event for the plant breeder growers and consumers. Floricultura is looking to get into new markets and create more awareness regarding its phalaenopsis novelties, and a select range of its anthurium varieties.
Milena Bijma-De Oliveira Cardoso (Account Manager South America and Southern Europe at Floricultura) says the following about this year’s ExpoPlantas show and their participation:
"We at Floricultura feel ExpoPlantas is the perfect platform for us. It is a fair where there is true focus in the segment. The energy is positive and people visit it to grow and professionalize their business.
Last year I was at the ExpoPlantas exhibition and felt this positive vibe there. It's the same enthusiasm I felt in Brazil twenty years ago, when the Brazilian Phalaenopsis business was still taking its first steps to eventually develop into the huge market it has become.
South America, especially Colombia, is booming. In the last year’s edition of ExpoPlantas I was invited to speak at their Conference. Afterwards, I was so often approached by people who wanted to know more about these plants, incredible! Therefore, it's a no-brainer that we must be at this exhibition.
We will show our phalaenopsis and anthuriums here at our booth 2D, which will be near the Dutch pavilion"
