Global horticultural breeding platforms
Global horticultural breeding platforms
HORTICULTURE SPOT ON
On the mid-term, we expect 5 to 8 global horticultural breeding platforms with a broad product portfolio to dominate the sector. A select number of single-crop breeders will continue to be successful as well, with key success factors being critical amongst others mass and globally activities. The transformation and consolidation in the sector will be facilitated by private equity firms, whom are actively looking to create new consolidation platforms.
"We now see the same happening in the horticultural sector, especially in breeding, where players are consolidating to increase their distribution power and reach economies of scale to cope with changing market conditions. We expect consolidation to continue, with market players actively considering joining forces with a large industry party or being of an active consolidator themselves."Frank de Hek, Horticulture Specialist, Oaklins
