We value our relationships with our colleagues and this is evidenced by the many long-standing employees who have developed their careers with us and contributed greatly to our success. We are investors for the long-term, and, with our partners, the Dutch Flower Group, we are committed to investing in facilities and talent to ensure we continue to anticipate our customers needs.
