Connection with the grower
At Flier Systems, we feel a strong connection with the growers’ entrepreneurial efforts. We like to see growers advance and we get involved by contributing to improved quality, maximum efficiency and optimised profitability.

We support ambitious horticultural entrepreneurs with knowledge, expertise and proven technology for mechanisation, automation and efficiency: so that they can become better suppliers for their customers.

85 years of horticultural knowledge
Horticultural know-how takes time. Knowledge also needs to grow from seeds, take root, and blossom. As such, the expertise at Flier Systems was not gathered overnight. We have been closely involved with horticulture since 1931. Literally, because our first location in Barendrecht was a stone’s throw away from local growers.

When Berend Flier developed the first soil blocker in his forge in Barendrecht, the foundation was created for a long list of innovations. Berend devised and produced simple tools, helping local growers to work better, simpler and more efficiently. A lot has changed since then, but not the main principle. Management is now in its third generation, but we still work hard every day to deliver technological improvements and innovations.

The Dutch horticulture sector and Flier Systems have become increasingly interweaved. We translate our knowledge into modular customisation that proves its value in any business situation. It allows us to help growers achieve quality, growth, efficiency and great results. Always with our main aim in mind: helping our clients become better suppliers. This drive has been bundled in the FL’EX model.

Buffalo determination
Growing is not always easy. It requires a healthy breeding ground, but also knowledge, support and favourable conditions. Not to mention people and companies that complement and contribute to your qualities. Not surprisingly, there is a stylised buffalo in the Flier Systems logo: a robust animal that possesses strength and determination, but also strategic insight. A buffalo is shoulder to shoulder with its partners. Just as Flier Systems, because succeeding is something you achieve together.
