From Heating Installer to Complete Supplier for Brookberries

When Brookberries acquired a greenhouse horticulture company in 1999, their adventure in strawberry cultivation began. Prior to that, Brookberries focused on agriculture, but in 1999, they embarked on a new direction.

The greenhouse horticulture company that was acquired was already a client of ours, so Brookberries also entered into the collaboration. It has now been nearly 23 years. Over the years, much of the outdoor strawberry cultivation has moved indoors. From approximately 2 hectares of strawberries in 1999, Brookberries has expanded to about 30 hectares.

A growing collaboration

In 2003, Brookberries built their first greenhouse. By 2006, they ceased activities in their old agricultural business. In 2008, a new strawberry greenhouse was added. In 2013 and 2014, Brookberries acquired other greenhouse horticulture companies, and for these acquisitions, we have always handled the maintenance, expansion, and adaptation of the greenhouses. While Brookberries initially knew us mainly for heating installations, since 2014, we have also taken on the water and electrical installations.

Currently, we are putting the finishing touches on a new greenhouse. For this 9-hectare greenhouse complex, we have managed the entire technical installation. With so many strawberry greenhouses, it is crucial to work with reliable partners. Brookberries states:

“Cogas is not only involved in the development and construction of installations but also in service. Cogas Climate Control takes on various disciplines and handles heating, water installations, electricity, nutrient units, and assimilation lighting. Cogas is up-to-date with the latest solutions and developments. They truly think along with us.”

Like Brookberries, we value building and maintaining strong relationships where you know what you can expect from each other. We understand what we have with each other, which fosters a very natural and respectful collaboration. Here’s to the future, where we continue this partnership.
