Our Platinum Sponsor: HORTICENTRE 

Set up for growers, Run by growers

The Horticentre Group, formerly Veg Gro Supplies Limited, was set up by the Auckland Vegetable Growers Society in 1981. Growers in the region at that time, initially began bulk buying chloropicrin, which was soon followed by technical fertilisers, in order to maintain profitability for themselves as growers. From this very basic enterprise grew Veg-Gro Supplies Limited, set up for growers, run by growers and formed to ensure growers obtained a fair deal when purchasing their horticultural supply requirements.

INDUSTRY SUPPORT

The Horticentre Group works hard to ensure the New Zealand horticultural industry has access to the latest research and technology for commercial horticultural growing.  The future of our industry relies on new research discoveries and talented people entering the industry.
