Planning maximises FlowerTrials® Experience
The increasing success of the FlowerTrials® brings new challenges. The number of exhibiters and locations grows each year so careful planning becomes key! A successful FlowerTrials® experience doesn’t have to wait until 13th June, it can start right now.
Planning the journey
To help visitors make the very most out of the event, FlowerTrials® has designed a brand-new route planner that defines the shortest itinerary and calculates the travel time between locations.
Norman Cools, ICT and PR Manager VWS FlowerBulbs and FlowerTrials® Board Member, is responsible for the website: “The new route planner can either be used upfront when deciding which exhibitors to visit, or in week 24 itself to facilitate the journey. Simply tick the locations, define a start and finish point and the planner does the rest.”
The route planner can be found on the FlowerTrials® website: https://www.flowertrials.com/en/route-planner
New Locations
Two locations have been added this year to the route. New exhibitors Hendriks and Green Works can be visited at the Hendriks location in 's-Gravenzande, while in the Aalsmeer region, De Zonnebloem Jonge Planten can be found at their own location in De Kwakel. Dümmen Orange has meanwhile moved within Westland and can now be found in Naaldwijk on the Bosweg. Details on all locations and addresses can be found on the FlowerTrials® website https://www.flowertrials.com/en/addresses.
Planning the assortment
Not only the journey, but also the assortment can be viewed upfront, making the selection of locations to visit easier and more effective. For each exhibitor, the FlowerTrials® website provides a product video, photos and an overview of the main 2017 introductions. In addition, an improved search field on the home page helps identify more accurately which crop matches which company. A new pot or bedding plant is presented daily on FlowerTrials® Facebook, Twitter and Instagram pages and regular newsletters reveal the highlights of this year’s assortments.
