Hoogendoorn opens Mexican training center

The facility opened on November 6, 2014 and will provide training for growers of fruits, vegetables and flowers.

 

On November 6, 2014 Hoogendoorn, the horticultural automation producer, officially opened its new Mexican office and training center. This new establishment is located in an important high-tech greenhouse cluster: the Agropark of Queretaro. At this training facility, Hoogendoorn will share knowledge with local growers and partners. During the opening, more than 70 enthusiastic guests, including the Dutch Embassy, Mexicultura, the Amphac, dealers and customers were present.

Mexican horticulture is a rapidly growing market that faces many challenges. Besides scarcity of fossil energy and water, the market requirements for sustainably produced vegetables, fruits and flowers are growing. As a result, demand for state-of-the-art process automation and knowledge is rapidly growing. With the new training centre, Hoogendoorn can meet these needs.

Various training programs
The new office is housed in one of the most innovative high-tech greenhouses in Mexico: Sunny Fields. Jacques Jajati; director of Sunny Fields, says "We chose Hoogendoorn without any hesitation: the service and employees make it a great company to work with."
 
At this location, Hoogendoorn will provide basic and advanced user training for growers and maintenance courses for technical staff at different levels. The first Masterclass Climate Management will be held on December 2 and 3 2014.
