FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

This page provides answers to common questions we receive.

1. Who are behind FlorAccess?

FlorAccess was started by Ewoud Goorts and Tom Hogewind. They are Dutch entrepreneurs who make the horticulture industry smarter and more efficient by providing a digital platform that allows growers and buyers to trade directly.

2. Can I use my own transport company?

Yes, you can use your desired transport company to pick up your order at our hub in Aalsmeer (NL).

3. Can I also come and pick up the ordered products myself?

Yes, you can pick up your order at our hubs in Aalsmeer (NL).

4. When will the order be delivered?

Your order is ready for shipment the day after you’ve placed your order with us. If you have transportation arranged by us, we’ll ship it that day. It will be delivered via the most efficient route. The final delivery time depends on the selected transport company.

5. Can I pay after delivery?

To ensure the best price, all orders are prepaid, just as you are used to with airline tickets. Therefore, all orders are paid in advance. Once the payment is made, we will instantly contact the growers and place your order with them.

6. Can I still adjust or cancel my products after payment?

If you have already ordered products but have not paid yet, you can easily change your order. Once you've paid, we'll get started right away and pick up the products directly from the grower. Because the products are already on their way, adjustment or cancellation of an order is no longer possible.

7. Do you offer volume discount?

All discounts have already been incorporated into the product prices. No, you will not get a discount on volume or order frequency. You'll get our Best Price Guarantee: If you can find the same product cheaper at another webshop, including commissions and without a discount or promotional price, you'll get the difference back and we'll lower the price. Our Best Price Guarantee applies to products sold through a similar webshop.

8. Do you deliver anywhere in Europe?

Yes, you can have the products shipped to any European country. In order to do this we work with transport companies that are specialized in conditioned transport. That way, we ensure that the products are shipped with care.

10. How do I know that I order directly from the grower?

FlorAccess connects supply and demand. All our products are in the greenhouse of the grower until they are bought. From there they will be taken to our hub, prepared for transportation and shipped immediately. We do not keep stock, so all products need to come directly from the growers.

11. How do you guarantee the quality?

The products we offer come from growers we have carefully selected for you. Due to a long collaboration we know which growers deliver quality throughout the year. Therefore, you are always sure that products are of good quality. Are you dissatisfied with the products delivered? Then you will get your money back.

18. What happens with the danish trolleys?

There are two options depending on the type of trolley:

• If the shipment is delivered on trolleys with an RFID chip. then the trolleys need to be exchanged for empty ones upon delivery. The transport company takes them back immediately.

• If the shipment is delivered on trolleys without an RFID chip, then the price for these trolleys will show up on your invoice. This type of trolleys do not need to be returned.
