OUR HISTORY
The 40th anniversary of Tuning BV, back in 1971, was commemorated with a Delft Blue cup. On it, a firm handshake is pictured, a sign that business-relationships and friendships go well together. That’s what the company is aiming for.
So, the company was founded in 1931. Its founder, Willem Hendrik Jacobus George “Bill” Tuning (born Naarden, The Netherlands November 23, 1914) then nearly 17 years of age, had recently returned from the South of France where he attended an agricultural college at Lorgues.
His wish was to start a business in the centre of the then much smaller Dutch Flower industry in Aalsmeer, which was not an easy thing to do in the 30’s of the last century, the entire world being immersed in a terrible economical crisis.
