Our team

Since 1995, the foundation of Ergon International, I strive to create the conditions appropriate for an excellent performance and continuous growth of the company.

In my little free time you can often find me swimming in the outside pool in our town. Also I like to walk in nature where it is always fascinating to look at everything thats grows and flourishes. This is also a reason to give my full support to and be a member of the Dutch Rare Breed Survival Trust (SZH).

As account manager I am in close contact with our current clients and new business relations. Together with my experienced colleagues I set up new business activities in the areas where Ergon operates. In addition to my customer service responsibilities, I try to contribute to the introduction of new selected varieties into the market. All this in cooperation with our technical sales engineer.

In order to relax I play football (soccer) and, of course, I also like to watch a good football game. I work out every week and like to watch Formula One races on television.

My main responsibilities are Ergon’s stock management, variety registration and customer service. I aim to carry out these administrative tasks in the best possible way.

At home I love to work in my garden to grow my own vegetables.

Being one of the customer service employees my job concerns the scheduling of orders and processing the in- and outcoming orders. Besides that I focus on public relations, a diverse task that varies from the website to social media and to film and photography. It is enjoyable for me to use my background in mediastudies at this diverse task.

When I’m not working I enjoy cooking, reading, watching TV and films and visiting museums.

Responsible for all non-sales related activities within Ergon. In addition, I am involved with all our website issues and the photography of our products both in our greenhouses and on location.

In my free time you can find me, of course, with my camera taking pictures from all that passes by. For many years now I have been dancing with a close sacred dance ladies group, for me a way to achieve a state of inner peace and tranquility.

As it is my job to coordinate all activities at the seed packing unit I must see to the correct and on time packing of the vegetable seeds. And so I do this task together with my colleagues Margriet and Anneke. I also take care of the germ tests, process the results and carry out different administrative tasks. During the growing season I assist Ergon's crop care employees in the greenhouses.

In my spare time I like to exercise, cycle and walk. With my children and friends I like to go out to Texel, for instance. Other favorites of mine are shopping in a nice city, visiting music festivals and going to the theater.

As crop care employee I am involved in interesting and accurate work in our greenhouses together with my colleagues. From sowing, planting and all further activities, including the harvest, we ensure that all vegetable trials succeed as good as possible in order to evaluate the various varieties for the different regions all over the world.

In my free time I like to walk, I regularly go to music performances of different bands, mostly in the blues-rock style and for 35 years now I have been playing in the table tennis competition, which I still enjoy doing.
