From the Cape directly to the IPM in Essen: Import Promotion Desk presents Fynbos cut flowers from South Africa

Import Promotion Desk promotes the direct trade of cut flowers from South Africa and presents the Fynbos variety at the IPM: Hall 1 Stand 1D12

Bonn / Berlin, 16/01/2025 - Whoever wants to offer extraordinary flower arrangements cannot do without South Africa. The south-western part of South Africa is well known for its unique flora, the Fynbos flora and the diversity of endemic plants. The Import Promotion Desk (IPD), together with its partner, the industry association 'Cape Flora South Africa', will be showcasing the diversity of fynbos at IPM in Essen, Germany, from 28 to 31 January 2025: Hall 1 Stand 1D12

The Cape region offers perfect conditions for the fynbos biome. This extraordinary diversity will surprise some buyers and enrich the European cut flower offer. The flower farms in the IPD programme are small and medium-sized enterprises that specialise in the cultivation, wild collection and breeding of fynbos varieties, including different varieties of the King protea.

Together with the IPD company ‘34 Degree South’, IPD will be showcasing impressive King proteas, colourful Leucadendrons such as the Ayoba Jade Pearl, as well as the extraordinary flower globes of the Brunia and Berzelia varieties at the IPM. The company will also be showcasing innovative varieties such as Madiba and Red Rex, developed from the wild Protea cynaroides.

Buyers will have the opportunity to talk to representatives from ‘34 Degree South’ at the IPD stand and learn about the benefits of direct exchange and trade.

Our services for you - neutral and free of charge

  • Direct access to certified producers: We connect you with small and medium-sized South African flower farms that specialise in the cultivation, breeding and sustainable wild collection of fynbos.

  • Reliable quality and export expertise: We have visited and carefully screened all producers on site. We pay attention not only to product quality, exportability and compliance with international standards and certifications, but also to the efficiency of logistics.
    We offer direct access to small producers whose cut flowers are normally only available from larger companies.

  • Sustainability and uniqueness: Our partners are committed to sustainable cultivation methods and responsible wild harvesting that contribute to the preservation of biodiversity. This gives you the opportunity to offer a range that is both high quality and environmentally conscious.

The South African fynbos flora, which is only found in the south-west of the country, not only offers visually impressive cut flowers, but also an excellent shelf life. Cultivated plants benefit from targeted care, while wild collections enrich rare and difficult-to-grow varieties.
