Ard Mulder Has Seen the Green Profession From Every Angle
“I have been working in and around horticulture my entire life. I started out as a garden center employee and I then went to work for Bloemenveiling Aalsmeer as an inspector. I was then Production Manager at Presikhaaf Nurseries, and finally started working as an intermediary at Hobaho and then CNB.”
I have been self-employed since 2017. I use my knowledge and experience in the field of cultivation, trade and relationship management to oversee sales and customer relationship management and to ensure that we receive top quality products from the Netherlands and Uganda.

Supporting Carol
We’re Not Just About Business
We also want to give something back to the country and make a difference locally for people who have very few opportunities. That is why we contribute to ‘Supporting Carol’.
Carol Nanziri is disabled but thanks to Yugung Holding’s contribution, she is in good hands at Dorna Center for Autism in Kampala, where children and young adults with autism receive the care and guidance they need.
