The Dutch city of Veghel -home base of Intracare and Intrahorti- has long been recognised as a driving force and home base for the Dutch agri and food sector. Both national and international market-leading companies have established and grown in the favorable business climate for which Veghel is renowned. A fact we are proud of! In this economic environment, Intrahorti is a rapidly growing agritech brand that plays an increasingly prominent role in the global agri-sector.
We believe in smart, safe alternatives that contribute to a better future. We improve the health and well-being of plants, humans, and animals. Our innovations create sustainable growth and returns for growers, farmers and businesses. In its 21-year history, Intracare has experienced significant growth, strengthening its position and reputation in the market with quality products. Due to this growth, expansion on location Voltaweg is necessary. Construction of a new state-of-the-art innovation and production facility is set to begin in mid-2024.
Economic Affairs Alderman Jan Goijaarts: "Veghel holds a key position as an economic hotspot for agri-food, logistics, and manufacturing. We aim to continue providing space for the economic development of existing companies, attract new businesses, promote sustainability, and facilitate innovation. Intracare is a company that fits perfectly into this vision, and we are pleased with the further growth of this company within our municipality."

The new climate-neutral factory, spanning an impressive 15,000 m2, will house additional chemical and microbiological laboratories, pharma GMP+ cleanrooms, an experience center, production lines, warehouse, R&D and office space. This will ensure overall capacity and meet the growing demand for the coming years. The goal for the new facility is to be operational by 2025. Scientific research will also become a significant part alongside production.
The continuous growth also puts pressure on staffing needs. Intracare is always on the lookout for talented individuals at various levels within the company, relying heavily on the North-East Brabant region, particularly Meierijstad (Veghel-area). Intracare has a warm and involved company culture, with a strong emphasis on employee well-being and sports. As one of the first companies, Intracare gave its employees the opportunity to exercise during working hours. "We see fantastic progress in both fitness and teamwork. We will definitely continue this." said Van Geest.
