In a few days, Union Fleurs members and friends will gather in Rotterdam on the occasion of the Union Fleurs Autumn Meeting 2015. This year, the Autumn meeting has been organised in the continuity of the International Flower Trade Fair (IFTF), held in Vijfhuizen, Netherlands (4 – 6 November) to ease travel plans for our members and allow significant participation from industry partners to the various parts of the programme. Union Fleurs has teamed up with MPS and VGB who will host the event as part of MPS’ 20th anniversary celebrations and the 40 years of VGB.
The week-end programme will take participants to visit growers in the Westland and discover by boat Rotterdam Harbour, one of the largest in the world. Parts of the programme will be organised jointly with Florint, the International Florist Association, which will be holding its congress during the same week-end. This shall offer everyone ample opportunities to network and make new acquaintances!
Monday 9 November will be dedicated to meetings: Union Fleurs Members’ Meeting in the morning and a large-scale industry seminar “Shaping the Future of Floriculture” in the afternoon (see article below).
