Plant Products winds down distribution of Syngenta greenhouse vegetable seeds

Syngenta Vegetable Seeds Global and Plant Products have concluded their 15-year North American greenhouse vegetable seed supply and distribution partnership.

Beginning in February 2024, Plant Products will no longer be involved in those activities -- new product development, demand creation, technical support, complaint management, logistics, import permitting, or accounts receivable -- in support of the Syngenta greenhouse vegetable seed business in Canada or the United States. But the company is actively pursuing a partnership agreement with other greenhouse vegetable seed suppliers in the future.

“We’re very proud of the results Plant Products has produced on behalf of Syngenta since our collaboration began,” noted Chris Stickles, president of Plant Products. “Together, we were able to bring value to and support Plant Products’ customers.”

Plant Products remains committed to participating in the greenhouse vegetable seeds business going forward.
