This year has been filled with unpredictable events that changed our lives.
We have moved from doing business and life in person to doing it from home, which made our organisations more inclusive. With the global health crisis, the economy went into the worst downturn in history, and it meant that everyone was focused only on what is critically important.
The year2020 has catalysed some of the important changes in our society.
Agriculture was deemed #essential and our customers were #stillfarming, but they were doing so in a new way, in a world that demanded not only more transparency and attention to environmental stewardship but also more human connection, even if it is delivered in a new, digital way.
We knew we had the value to offer the industry, and the courageous and relentless team at FluroSat has pushed through all odds to achieve our goals. Through tightening and untightening of the belts, supporting our customers when their own businesses were uncertain this spring, and meeting their needs every step of the way to help them thrive.
Growth 🚀
This year we have doubled (and in some cases- tripled!) down on our growth in our key geographies: Australia and North America, as well as started operations in Latin America and Eastern Europe.
💡 Spoiler alert: internationalisation of the FluroSense app is underway!
Whilst at the beginning of the year, it felt like we would have to put our plans on hold, we regrouped, sought new ways to collaborate, and have most importantly, not just helped ourselves but helped our customers to adopt "virtual ag", which will be table stakes in 2021!
