Berryplants Ltd was founded in November 1995 by Tony Bentley and David Hopkins, both highly experienced in the strawberry propagation industry. The company is based close to its original home farm in Newchurch on Romney Marsh, where soft fruit growing and propagation has taken place for generations.

While Romney Marsh remains home to our substrate production, our plant propagation has expanded to growing regions around the world, drawing on the best available infrastructure for each plant format we supply.

Today, Berryplants supplies professional commercial growers across Europe with strawberry and raspberry planting stock. As master licence holders for Plant Sciences and Bayer Crop Science varieties, we provide a trusted pipeline of new genetics backed by three decades of propagation experience.

David Hopkins co-founded Berryplants Ltd in 1995. His vision and dedication laid the foundations for everything the company has built over the past 30 years, and his legacy continues to be felt throughout the business today.
