Dümmen Orange Is The New Name For DNA Green Group

DummenOrangeDNA Green Group has a new name: Dümmen Orange. The company revealed its new name, logo and brand values at all of its facilities in 16 countries on Thursday, April 23. The well-known corporate brands Lex+, Bartels, Terra Nigra, Dümmen Group, Agribio China, Agribio Colombia, Oro, PLA, as well as the production locations, are changing their identities immediately to Dümmen Orange.

“All companies that have been acquired have a rich and successful history,” Visser says. “We have always tried to respect that heritage. Doing so, we created confusion for our customers. Our employees expressed a preference for a more uniform approach to the market, too. That is why we have chosen one large umbrella brand that embraces the entire product portfolio. Dümmen Orange will take the place of all these established names.

“The advantages for our customers are clear. It will be easier to find our products, with fewer catalogs and one company website, and we are going to invest more in our account management. Customers will be able to find all of their products in one stop. We are creating one face to the world, even more focus on our customer demands and the development of successful products – exactly where our focus needs to be.”

The brand values have been developed with a group of 15 marketers and sales representatives throughout the world, Visser explains.

We build on the knowledge, skills and experience that the companies have developed in the past. That remains the trusted foundation toward the future for our customers. We strive to create innovative solutions – by thinking inside and outside of the box – to make it better for our customers and their customers. All teams within our company strive to advance every day. Next to this, we cherish the role our products play in people’s lives. Everything we do in the future will have to support these brand values.”
