Agro-Neretva

Every grower operates in a unique context of climate, crop, and market demands. Whether it is a strategic greenfield consultation or a complex logistical trading operation, our goal remains the same: to provide honest advice and efficient execution.

A Modern Horticultural Operation in the Heart of the Neretva Valley

Located in Croatia's picturesque Dubrovnik-Neretva County, on the banks of the Neretva River, Agro-Neretva is a progressive family-owned horticultural business led by Ivana and Bruno Volarević.

Serving local retailers, landscapers, and growers, Agro-Neretva specializes in the production of young plants, herbs, leafy greens, and potted plants. Many of their products find their way to Dubrovnik, one of the Mediterranean's most visited destinations, where millions of tourists experience the quality and freshness of locally grown produce every year.

Driven by continuous improvement, Agro-Neretva has invested heavily in modern cultivation technologies, including nanobubble water treatment, ozone disinfection systems, and advanced seeding and transplanting automation. Their commitment to innovation allows them to deliver consistently high-quality plants while improving efficiency and sustainability throughout their operation.

The Challenge

As Agro-Neretva expanded and modernized its production, the company required increasingly specialized growing inputs tailored to its specific cultivation needs. At the same time, ongoing global and regional supply chain disruptions made sourcing critical inputs more challenging.

Production schedules in horticulture leave little room for delays. Missing a delivery window for substrates, fertilizers, or other essential inputs can quickly impact crop planning, labor efficiency, and customer commitments.

Agro-Neretva needed a reliable partner capable of responding quickly and securing the right products at the right time.

The JUNE Solution

JUNE supported Agro-Neretva by sourcing and supplying several critical crop inputs when conventional supply channels fell short.

Leveraging our extensive horticultural network, we quickly mobilized support through our partner Rysa Substrates, ensuring that the required materials were delivered within the narrow time frame needed to maintain production continuity.

Beyond supplying products, JUNE helped streamline communication between the grower and manufacturers, creating a direct connection that supports long-term operational growth and improved planning.

From supply chain challenge to production continuity.

By combining industry expertise, responsive sourcing, and strong supplier partnerships, JUNE helped Agro-Neretva secure essential inputs, protect production schedules, and continue delivering quality plants to the Croatian market.
