Direct delivery via Floriday: more and more available in software packages

March 8, 2023

Piet Vijverberg
More and more software packages which are linked with the Floriday API now support the ability to handle direct deliveries via the Floriday API. This allows growers who work via the Floriday API link to handle the direct order without having to use the Connect-EAB. Growers thus benefit directly from more trading opportunities and gain more insight into the deliveries being handled.

In recent months, a large number of software suppliers have been working on adding direct delivery to the software package. A good number are also rolling this out to their customers on a daily basis. You may also have had implementation consultants from your software supplier visit you. Most software suppliers are expected to have provided all their customers with this capability by the end of April.

More insight, earlier feedback

This way of working offers growers and buyers more insight into order handling, and provides earlier financial feedback on the order. It also supports new payment methods such as eWallet. This allows growers to sell to a wider group of buyers via Floriday.

Faster and more sales opportunities

Jeroen van der Wel, working at Piet Vijverberg: "We are working with the latest update in our SDF business software. Order processing for us and our customers is good, it's faster and avoids time-consuming errors. Administrative processing is much faster these days, and we can spend this time on more important things. With these new features, sales opportunities have also been further enhanced by allowing buyers to check out via e-Wallet, for example."

From 1 July pricing for Connect-EAB

By handling the direct order through Floriday, growers no longer need to use the Connect-EAB. This is because the Connect-EAB is not resilient to future developments needed in digital business. From 1 July 2023, the Connect-EAB will also be tariffed. That is, a tariff will soon be charged per supply letter line if growers still use the Connect-EAB. The rate is yet to be set.
