The symbolic seed planted by DENSO and Certhon

NETHERLANDS, Poeldijk - DENSO Corporation, the world's second-largest supplier of advanced automotive technology, owns Certhon, a leader in the development of greenhouse projects. To celebrate this milestone, a seed symbolizing a fruitful future was planted under the watchful eye of all employees and a number of guests. It is a milestone for the family business and Certhon CEO Lotte van Rijn knows how to articulate it: "Certhon and DENSO share the same vision and mission: enabling global cultivation with innovative technologies and a dedicated team."

Mr Hidehiro Yokoo, Senior Executive Officer of the Food Value Chain Business Development Division at DENSO is looking forward to jointly addressing global food and agriculture challenges: "Certhon is a unique partner with shared values and complementary technologies. That is the core of this collaboration. Together, we will continue to grow to provide the best solutions for food safety worldwide."

DENSO's focus on sustainable objectives, such as reducing the impact of climate change and resource efficiency, fits perfectly with Certhon's commitment to a healthy and prosperous future. This collaboration combines expertise and resources to promote innovation and sustainability within the horticulture sector. The planting of a symbolic seed at the end of the speech marked a significant step towards growth and development. Lotte van Rijn stressed, "We cannot wait to realize beautiful projects together. This seed therefore symbolises our joint future and the harvest of opportunities that, with the help of robotics, we will yield."

That this promising milestone is seen by the Dutch ministry as an exciting journey of innovation and cooperation within the world of horticultural technology was evident from the speech by Mr Frederik Vossenaar, Special envoy of the Ministry of Agriculture, Nature and Food Quality. Mr. Vossenaar had nothing but praise for both companies and this promising strategic move. A unique combination of automation, advanced horticultural technology, and cultivation knowledge, is and will remain a rock-solid partnership.
