Another Onings trip abroad, this time with Paul Onings and Randy van Paassen visiting growers and customers in Vietnam. Good conversations, greenhouse visits, and plenty of relationship-building, exactly the kind of trip that keeps happening, wherever in the world our customers are.
The Vietnamese lily market is going through a period of change, with climate change among the challenges growers are facing. Still, there was plenty of positive energy to be felt. Paul and Randy met ambitious entrepreneurs, growers looking to expand, and customers actively searching for new varieties, better quality, and new opportunities.
Double lilies continue to gain attention, new varieties are being tested, and several growers are already planning for next season. "It was especially encouraging to see that quality, service and long-term relationships remain important in this very competitive market," says Paul.
For Randy, this was his first time meeting our Vietnamese partners in person, a good moment to ask directly how they see their relationship with Onings, and where we can do better. One thing didn't go to plan: heavy rain had flooded several farms around Hanoi, so visiting those fields wasn't possible this time.
Still, a valuable trip, with plenty of ideas to bring back home. Thank you to everyone who welcomed them, shared their thoughts, and showed them around.
