Lubera Bad Zwischenahn, Germany
Since 2012 we have been developing a second location in Bad Zwischenahn, Germany, near Oldenburg and Bremen. In December 2013, we were able to purchase the business “Konrad Dierks” in Bad Zwischenahn and have thus laid the foundation for continued growth.
In Bad Zwischenahn, some of our plant species for the European market are produced here; the plants are packed for our customers in the EU and also a large part of our customer service takes place here. Of course, we are now testing all of our varieties in Bad Zwischenahn, in a climate that is strongly maritime and determined by the North Sea; it is comparable to the climate in northern Germany, in the Benelux countries and in England. Due to the acidic soil conditions, the breeding of new blueberry varieties has also been started in Bad Zwischenahn.
Of course we have yet another reason why we chose Bad Zwischenahn in the Ammerland (as the region is called). This area happens to be one of the largest European production centres for nursery plants, a real cluster. In a 25 km radius around our company, there are over 300 tree nurseries and perennial nurseries. This makes it possible for us to purchase the best plants from the best nurseries, in addition to our own assortment of fruits, berries, roses and flowering shrubs that we produce ourselves. And the best part: We buy just in time, exactly that what you have just ordered from us, so that all of our plants are fresh. They come directly from the nursery and have not been stored for months, as is the case with many other retailers.
