Michigan Grower Products
started eighteen years ago with the owners sharing the cost
of equipment to blend media and fill containers. Eighteen years
ago, the limiting resource was capital for major equipment purchases.
As the business grew, the investment in equipment grew.
These machines do require labor. We are very fortunate to have
the same quality work force every year. We have developed relationships
with these fine people to accommodate the seasonality of our
business. We maintain a base staff year around and supplement
during the busy season. These supplemental employees provide
for continuous production. These surehands have returned for
several years and work for others during our slow times. |
The seasonality of
each business matches well. It is a win-win-win situation.
This means that we have a supply of labor focused on filling
containers. They are trained and have years of experience. They
fill each cell of a flat, each hanging basket, each pot and
each nursery can the same. You receive uniformly filled containers.
This reduces your management challenges, while growing the crop.
By outsourcing your filled containers, you reduce your labor
requirements – fewer people. Your current team can devote
their time and efforts to other tasks. Today, why do so many
growers purchase plugs or cutting material, rather than do their
own? Because they have found purchasing from a specialist to
have more value - higher quality at less cost. |
Do you think the car
manufacturers make all their own parts? We know that is not
true. Look at all the businesses in Michigan alone that specialize
in this part or that for the car manufacturers.
Michigan Grower Products is doing the same for filled containers.
We have an excellent returning labor supply. We manage the inventory
of mix and container. We maintain the equipment. We manage the
labor. We manage the quality of the filled container. Why? For
you. To satisfy your needs. To allow you to manage your “growing”
business. |
