The Dutch fellowship Montfleury , the biggest exporter to France and a powerhouse in retail supplies , celebrates their twentieth day of remembrance . The companionship of Frederic Meniai and his sons Cédric ( Commercial Director ) and Dion ( Executive Assistant ) has steady grown over the old age , from only two employees in 2002 to 25 in the place and about 65 in the processing elbow room . The latter powerfully varies . With seasonal returns , public holiday , or Christmas , it can grow to around 200 employee .
Once upon a time , Frederic work out for Movrie , an exporter to France that met its oddment around the turn of the one C . He started his own business and could take a few client with him , which made for a decent start . ab initio , he settled in a building on a street near the former Buis JR . later on on , he rented a building for a while on the industrial site De Lasso in Roelofarendsveen . In 2008 Frederic buy a plot of land in De Kwakel , in the municipality of Utrecht , and work up the current facility , 12,500 m2 .
Mainly bouquets are made there , while the entire customer product range of efflorescence and industrial plant is prepare in France and partly in Spain . In the past , other markets were targeted , particularly Italy . Now they are look to potentially take off with a customer in Poland , but market expansion has always been considered a side issue . client are mainly supermarkets , but not the so - called ' discount store . ' The biggest peaks are during seasonal income tax return , the first day of schoolhouse ( which is also mainly celebrated in Eastern Europe ) , a few public holidays , and Christmas .
A Frenchman himself , Frederic often has a competitive edge . That undoubtedly has to do with the language but also with an understanding of the market . " A Frenchman comes to take a look and wants to know everything for certain . Is the price appropriate ? Is he getting fooled ? You must show your reliableness , and then you may issue . If this is repeated a few time and you win his trust , he wo n’t suddenly go away . "
This mentality is also reflected in the family relationship Montfleury has with their supplier , the promotion and added value , the logistics , and the staff . For nearly two decades , the society has done business with essentially the same company in all of these fields . In purity of the anniversary , these supplier were welcome , together with even client and sexual intercourse , at a beautiful jubilation in On the Rock in Aalsmeer .
