Auctioning flowers and plants 1 hour earlier; Monday 25 May and Tuesday 2 June 2020
11 May 2020
We see that trade is slowly recovering and volumes are moving towards the ‘usual’ level again. In particular, the number of transactions has increased, as well as the density.
In order to ensure that Royal FloraHolland can deliver the
products in time - via the processes adjusted to a distance of 1.5
metres - we are going to auction flowers and plants 1 hour earlier
after all on two days. The early auction days are Monday 25 May and
Tuesday 2 June 2020.
We will be doing this at our locations Aalsmeer, Naaldwijk and
