Our Engagement is dedicated to fair trade, sustainability and the support of small rose plantations, the so-called fincas. We appreciate the personal contact, know exactly where our roses grow and know all participants and interfaces between the cultivation up to the delivery to the Swiss retail.
Quality has many aspects for us. Some are directly visible to our customers: our exquisite roses, personal contact with our customers and good service.
Other aspects are more complex. The cultivation of roses in Ecuador. The respect for workers, employees and the environment as a component of quality.
We are in daily contact with our suppliers and partners in Ecuador. On site we check the conditions in order to be able to initiate necessary developments together with our partners. Knowing the culture and language is an essential prerequisite to get an all-embracing and correct picture.
Our Engagement is about our fincas the following labels:
