As an entrepreneur in gifts, Henk Wolswinkel from Promogoed saw a growing demand for original gifts. Last September Henk started Bedrukt-Fruit.nl (website for printing text on fruits and vegetables). This company specializes in supplying fruits and vegetables with a logo or text printed directly on the product, "Although the ability to print on fruits and vegetables is relatively unknown, we have already delivered some great orders. For example, we recently delivered peppers with printed text for an event at TU Delft (Technology University in Delft, The Netherlands)," says Henk.
Henk gets the fruits and vegetables from established contacts, and the freshness is guaranteed through the manner of printing and storage in their own refrigerated space, "We print text on the apples with edible ink, the rest of the products we personalize with a laser. We mainly supply to companies at events and fairs. But we also do things like open days and anniversary celebrations. The whole process, from design, printing and delivering takes approximately two weeks, but the process can be sped up if needs be. On our website we have a handy calculation tool that can calculate the price of a delivery for you. We do not have a maximum that you can order, the sky is the limit with us."
According to Henk, overall the apples are the most popular, "We sell apples the most because they do not have to be peeled. Apples are easy and practical. We deliver red and green apples, with white printed text. We use firm apples varieties that are available all year round."
