About Us
We are two entrepreneurs, one from the Netherlands and one from a Dutch-Hungarian background, who started a business last year in the field of sustainable recruitment. We work for sustainability-focused companies, but we also help less sustainable companies to become more sustainable by finding them the right people. As a company, we wanted to be as sustainable as possible.
Just a small example: real business cards often end up in a drawer, people forget about them, they're disposable, most people have LinkedIn, they store contacts in their phone: in other words, it's not very sustainable.
Using digital business cards shared with your phone, powered by NFC, is also an option, but experience shows that this is also not so sustainable. You might not have given away any unnecessary paper, but people won't remember you. Your details are in someone else's phone, but when they get home in the evening, they put all the business cards they've received on the table, but yours isn't there.....
This led us to look for a sustainable solution, which is how we came across the Dutch brand Growingpaper.
Every time we hand over a card, we get an incredibly positive reaction, months later everyone knows who we are, what we do and what a cool card we have!
It's a great way to reconnect after a long period of time, we simply ask if the card has started to grow...
Without initially imagining it, we became ambassadors of Growingpaper. Why send invitations for weddings, Christmas, birthdays, which are thrown away after a single reading, when you can make them bloom?
Let's make the world a little more beautiful and a little better with flowers and plants that we distribute together!
