Ledgnd, a trailblazer in data-driven cultivation optimisation for greenhouse horticulture, has officially opened its new office in Utrecht, marking a significant stride in the company’s expansion strategy. This move comes just 10 months after the company relocated its headquarters from Capelle aan den IJssel to a larger space in Vlaardingen, highlighting Ledgnd’s remarkable growth trajectory.
The new Utrecht office is more than just an additional location; it serves as a strategic hub that brings Ledgnd closer to its customers in the northern part of the Netherlands. This central position not only enhances accessibility for existing clients but also opens doors to new talent, enabling the company to attract skilled professionals who are passionate about driving innovation and sustainability in greenhouse horticulture.
The expansion aligns perfectly with Ledgnd’s ambitious growth plans and its dedication to supporting the sector with cutting-edge solutions. “The opening of our Utrecht office marks another significant milestone,” says Ramon van de Vrie, founder of Ledgnd. “It is not just an additional location, but also a centrally located base that brings us closer to our customers in the northern part of the country. It also presents an opportunity to attract talented employees who want to contribute to a sustainable future for greenhouse horticulture.”
One of the key drivers behind Ledgnd’s growth is its innovative data platform, MyLedgnd. In 2024, the platform experienced a staggering 114% increase in users. MyLedgnd integrates data from climate computers, sensors, and plant feedback systems into a single, comprehensive overview. This integration allows growers to harness valuable insights, leading to increased yields, improved quality, and reduced costs. The platform’s success has been a significant factor in Ledgnd’s user growth, attracting both illuminated and non-illuminated growers who are eager to leverage data-driven solutions.
The Utrecht office opening is a testament to Ledgnd’s commitment to sustainable and innovative growth. “This move shows that we are on the right track,” says Van de Vrie. “But the most important thing is that we can serve our customers better while remaining an attractive employer for talent in greenhouse horticulture. We are always looking for people who want to contribute to innovation and sustainability.”
With the formal opening of the Utrecht office, Ledgnd is poised to continue its rapid expansion and enhance its service offerings. The company’s strategic location in the heart of the Netherlands will enable it to respond more quickly to customer needs and establish new collaborations. This move not only solidifies Ledgnd’s position as a leader in data-driven cultivation optimisation but also underscores its commitment to driving innovation and sustainability in the greenhouse horticulture sector.
