De Landscheiding

At the helm of this thriving company are father and daughter Hofman. Wilco Hofman discovered his passion for growing outdoor chrysanthemums at the age of 19. In 1985, he founded his first business for the cultivation of annual chrysanthemums, and from that moment, his company steadily grew. To this day, Wilco passionately leads the cultivation.

His daughter Juliska initially chose a completely different path. She had no interest in Santinis and obtained her bachelor's degree in Pedagogy in 2012. However, the allure of chrysanthemums proved too strong to resist.

Eventually, she decided to join the family business and has since worked side by side with her father. While Wilco focuses on cultivation, Juliska manages the financial and commercial aspects. Together, they form a strong team that runs the company with passion and dedication.

A uniform and high-quality product is at the heart of De Landscheiding. Every day, a wide variety of colors and types are harvested, transforming the greenhouses into a colorful mosaic.
