High-quality personal protective equipment by Houweling is now distributed by Hortus Supplies International in Ethiopia, Kenya, Canada and Colombia.

Aalsmeer – November 18, 2021 – Houweling Group, a market-leading distributor of personal protective equipment, and Hortus Supplies International announce an agreement for the distribution of personal protective equipment in the horticultural sector. The high-quality products are offered by Hortus under market-oriented labels that allow growers to determine at a glance which products best meet their needs.

“For Hortus, the collaboration with Houweling Group is ideal because the market knows that they stand for the highest quality,” says Richard Heemskerk, Director of Hortus Supplies International. “We think nothing is more important than the safety and health of the employees of our customers. That is why we opt for 3 labels that revolve around comfort, how much ease of wearing, adjustment options and the like the user has. Our customer chooses which label suits them best, but at the same time knows that the quality of the products is always good.”
