Flikweert starts strategic partnership North America

October 20, 2025

“The contract marks an important step in the international growth of Flikweert Vision and the expansion of Volm’s product portfolio”, shares Flikweert in a press release.

Collaboration aimed at added value for the customer

Thanks to the collaboration, Flikweert Vision can significantly strengthen the availability, service and support of optical sorting machines in North America. By combining Flikweert Vision’s technological lead with Volm’s local presence and expertise, a powerful total package is created for potato growers and packers.

During the visit to Zeeland, there was active sparring with various departments within Flikweert Vision. Concrete agreements were made about the joint approach to service, training and support, with the aim of unburdening customers as much as possible and providing them with long-term support.

Optical sorting closer to practice worldwide

The signed dealer contract marks the beginning of a new phase in Flikweert Vision’s international expansion. Together with Volm, optical sorting is made reliable, scalable and built for everyday use, more accessible to growers and packers of potatoes and onions worldwide. The collaboration is, according to Flikweert, based on shared values, complementary expertise and a shared view of the future.

Volm Companies

Volm is a leading player in the North American agricultural sector. With six branches and a technical team of 26 service employees, Volm has a strong regional presence.

In addition to the production and sale of packaging materials, the company specializes in the supply, installation and maintenance of machines for the processing and packaging of fresh fruit and vegetables.

With the ambition to be the Most Valued Partner for customers, Volm fits perfectly with the practice-oriented nature of Flikweert Vision and the shared mission to bring high-quality, scalable solutions closer to the user.
