Succes stories

"As a child, I dreamed of visiting the Netherlands. But because of the war in my country, I came here in a very different way than I had hoped. I’ve now been working at Royal FloraHolland for almost a year. When I started as an order picker, I wasn’t thinking about my future yet. I just wanted to work and make an income. But slowly, things changed. Because I did my job well, I got more and more opportunities. Now I work as an instructor. I love learning new things and growing in my work."

QuoteI’m grateful that the company saw my potential and believed in me. Thanks to this opportunity, I can now start thinking about building a future here in the Netherlands.Victoria Furiv
