 o
Amerinova/ Independent Advantage- business questions

Posted by cheerpeople 5a (My Page) on

I'm trying to research a company called Amerinova and it's pres. or manager named Matt Mart
At plant find.com I found this:

EuroAmerican, Homestead Gardens launch venture ?EuroAmerican Propagators in Bonsall, Calif., and Homestead Growers in Davidsonville, Md., have launched Independent Advantage, a partnership to build independent retailer channels. Homestead will be working with Euro and its plant licensing company Amerinova Properties to customize programs for growers and garden centers. The program will initially serve the Mid-Atlantic region. For the initial rollout, Amerinova has licensed Homestead Growers to propagate and distribute the John Greenlee Grass Collection and Savvy Succulents, both exclusive lines of genetics.

Can anyone find any info on how big this company is, relative to Wayside/Parks, or Logees, how it did financially in 2006 with it's inital rollout, if it plans to expand past the midatlantic area in 2007?
Also I can find no info on Independant Advantage.

If there is a more appropriate forum for this type of question LMK.

I have a trial agreement with Proven Winners and have just come to realize it is not really Proven Winners but this Amerinova that will be handling my plant.


Details anyone?
Feel free to contact me privately if you'd prefer just please use this subject or include my name so I don't miss your mail.
And thanks.

Have done the obvious and done a google search?

First Proven winner is just a marketing tool. You can buy proven winner from mutliple suppliers.

Euro american has been around awhile. According to there web site they are second largest plug producer in the US.

I don't know about Ameinova but it may possible be the broker that you are to deal with.

Comparing Logee's to Amerinova or EuroAmerica is sorta like comparing a wave in your bathtub to a tsunami. There just is no comparison. Logee's yearly production is more like what they ship out in a morning.

It sounds like it's really just another branded marketing campaign. Forgive me if I don't get too excited just yet.
