Philippines: JDI partners with Seminis for hybrid vegetable seeds distribution

Jardine Distribution Inc. (JDI) recently partnered with Seminis, one of the world’s largest vegetable seeds companies, for the marketing and distribution of the latter’s hybrid vegetable seeds in the Philippines.

Following the continuing success with its agricultural products, JDI is confident that its partnership with Seminis will contribute to its growing portfolio and further strengthen its presence in key vegetable areas with the branded hybrid vegetable seeds.

“We at JDI are optimistic and happy to expand and offer hybrid vegetable seeds that will not only perform well in the field but will also address consumer preferences. Seminis stood out to be an ideal partner, in terms of technology, product offering and track record.” Edwin Hernandez, JDI president, explained.

After thorough analyses of potentials, values and prices, JDI predicts Seminis’ growth to double within the next three years given JDI’s extensive marketing efforts.

“This partnership is beneficial not only to both companies but to our partner farmers as well. Given our wider reach, Seminis now becomes available to more farmers as we introduce them through product demonstrations and provide guidance on their crop management to ensure fruitful harvests.” Hernandez added.
