Waar je terecht komt

Hoogendoorn Growth Management was founded in 1967 as a small technical installation company. In 1974, we introduced our very first digital horticultural computer, the TUCO. Since then, we have grown into a global innovator in horticultural automation.

The average tenure of our employees currently stands at 8 years, something we are incredibly proud of! How do we sustain this? We believe that the service we provide to customers should also be extended to our employees. We do this by organizing activities for staff, offering fresh fruit, and providing a comprehensive lunch for a small fee. We also offer a lot of flexibility in terms of organizing your day and tasks. We believe in you, and you know best how you perform, whether it's every day in the office or partly from home.
