Maintaining long standing customer relations
|
Madestein is a family business, which supports the training and development of its skilled and experienced team while the business continues to flourish like its produce. To spread awareness of local growing and the importance of UK production, we work with schools in Sussex, Hampshire and Surrey.
We also support the RHS Campaign for School Gardening and were involved in their Rocket Science project. This provided 10,000 UK schools with the opportunity to engage pupils in a UK-wide live science experiment and to bolster knowledge of growing plants in space. In 2015, Madestein grew and provided plants for the initiative’s RHS Chelsea Stand which was used to promote the project with Tim Peake. These plants were then grown on in schools. In addition to this, we grew the plants for the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures. |
Maintaining long standing customer relations - Madestein has a close partnership with N.V. Produce and N.V. Transport. Our partners have maintained long-standing relationships with major retailers for over 40 years and continue to ensure our produce is supplied to customers who depend on great quality salad leaves and an excellent supply service. We grow the lettuce and herbs, N.V. Produce facilitates the products and N.V. Transport distributes them!
What is more, we provide tours of our production sites to schools in West Sussex, Surrey and Hampshire to help educate children about local growing and the importance of UK production.
