Closed chain

Traceability is the key word in the approach that Premium Dutch takes to its work. Premium Dutch creates a closed chain concerning all parties involved (and in close cooperation with businesses). The process begins with records being taken from the very start at bulb growers’ premises (ranging from planting stock up to and including storage facility assessments after lifting the bulbs) and continues in relation to flower growers (updated information concerning preparation, cold storage, etc.). Premium Dutch operates according to the MPS-GAP system in this regard.

Thanks to logistical traceability, Premium Dutch makes it possible to identify quality, with quality being improved within the links of the chain.

On balance, the quality policy operated by Premium Dutch means less waste and fewer mistakes, better coordination between supply and demand, prices with greater stability and happy consumers. Working in an environmentally aware manner (MPS ABC) is of key importance to Premium Dutch.
