FAMILY FIRMS Plantify Partners Europe A network of family firms Royal Lemkes is a subsidiary of Plantify Partners Europe (PPE), a European network of family firms in the horticultural sector. Plantify Partners work together to sustainably grow their companies, their employees, their customers and their business partners. PPE was founded in 2020 with Royal Lemkes and the Belgian company Floréac as the first Plantify Partners. Local production regions Europe is rich in local production regions for the trade and distribution of pot plants. Floréac and Royal Lemkes, two healthy family businesses with long traditions and strong identities, connect these production areas via an efficient supply chain with sales markets throughout Europe. Both companies serve as logistical hubs within their respective production regions. Thanks to their strategic locations and well-organised logistics, they can deliver their products reliably throughout Europe. With PPE, the partners aim to create a logistics and trade network of European players that will bring sustainable economies of scale and synergies to all stakeholders.
