The cooperative governance

Due to its size, Royal FloraHolland functions as a structured cooperative with a Supervisory Board, a Works Council and a Members' Council. The Management Board, as defined in the articles of association, is ultimately responsible for managing both the cooperative and the company. The Supervisory Board (SB) oversees the Management Board policies and the overall state of affairs within the business. The Members' Council exercises the powers previously held by the General Members' Meeting (GMM), such as appointing the members of the Supervisory Board and setting their remuneration, as well as approving the annual accounts and the main membership rates.
