When Frank van Kleef started helping with tomatoes and cucumbers at André van den Ende's horticultural company in 1972 as an 8-year-old schoolboy, he could not have imagined what an important role he would play together with Andre, Koert, and Bart van den Ende in the development of a successful horticultural company.
Early this year, Frank made it known to Koert and Bart that he wanted to free up more time to put his accumulated knowledge, experience, and passion for innovation to broader use in the greenhouse horticultural sector and therefore wanted to step down from the management of Royal Pride, knowing that the company is in good hands with Koert as general manager and Bart as an operational manager.
By mutual agreement, it was decided that Frank will step down as a member of the board of management of the Royal Pride Group on 30 June 2022 and will stay on as an advisor so that his knowledge and experience will be preserved for the company.

Koert and Bart are very grateful to Frank for his cooperation in all those years and for everything he has meant to the Royal Pride Group, they state in a press release. With appropriate pride, they look back at what they have achieved together. They wish Frank every success with the new challenge he is taking on.
