“Apart from adding value for our growers, we also add value for the world as a whole. In the past I worked a lot on signage, but that gives you a very different kind of satisfaction. Now we are driving important developments like city farming and the production of food in places where nothing normally grows. In the future, my dream is to work on a project in the Sahara. I'd like to dig a bunker in an inhospitable place where hardly anything grows and, with the help of solar energy and pipelines to supply water, I'd like to grow food there. That would redefine the areas in the world that can be considered habitable. With our team, our partners and the knowledge of our growers, we can make a difference in areas that matter."
