“That’s really where our fo-
        
        
          cus is, on selling our results.
        
        
          We test our own products in
        
        
          our own farms and our idea
        
        
          here is to maximize our own
        
        
          revenues, and that translates
        
        
          into maximizing the revenues
        
        
          of our clients as well, so if it’s
        
        
          good for us, it’s good for our
        
        
          clients,” said Patrice.
        
        
          Agri Marche’s strong fam-
        
        
          ily cohesion at the basis of its
        
        
          management strategy is what
        
        
          Patrice believes will see it rise
        
        
          to adapt to the challenges of
        
        
          a saturated market.
        
        
          “Obviously, we’re dealing
        
        
          with a mature industry, so we
        
        
          have to find ways to continue
        
        
          our growth. Some of it will
        
        
          come fromorganic growth, in-
        
        
          ternal growth, some of it will
        
        
          come from acquisitions, and
        
        
          being a mature industry for
        
        
          us to have competitive pric-
        
        
          es, it’s a question of volume,
        
        
          that’s why our need for us to
        
        
          grow is to continue to have
        
        
          our choice place in terms of
        
        
          volume with our suppliers,”
        
        
          said Patrice.
        
        
          “But, preparing the next
        
        
          generation to take over the
        
        
          reins of the previous genera-
        
        
          tion is the important ground
        
        
          work we must do to see that
        
        
          steady growth continues,
        
        
          from where ever it comes,
        
        
          into the future.”
