Sustainability Certification
Together, we ensure complete certified supply by 2027
What is sustainability certification?
From January 1, 2026, the vast majority of members and suppliers who offer, trade and settle flowers and plants through the Royal FloraHolland platform must be certified according to the requirements of the Floriculture Sustainability Initiative. With a step-by-step approach, all members and suppliers are working towards meeting the FSI requirements by 2027.
Certification according to the FSI basket consists of three pillars: GAP, Environment and Social. Based on the country in which the nursery is located, it is determined which pillars you must meet as a company and which certificates are required to meet those pillars.

Small-scale grower schema
The small-scale grower scheme was developed to offer all growers the opportunity to become certified and meet FSI requirements with less administrative burden and at a lower cost. This scheme is specifically tailored to their business operations. The scheme is suitable for small-scale growers with a total annual turnover from floricultural products of less than €250,000, who are active in the 'Global North' (mainly Europe and Israel). Find more information about the small-scale grower scheme and how to apply here.
