La Plazoleta & Weber Vacuum Group: A Strategic Alliance
For more than seven years, La Plazoleta has forged a powerful partnership with Weber Vacuum Group, setting new benchmarks in postharvest flower quality. La Plazoleta is a Colombian flower farm located on the outskirts of Bogotá, with an outstanding reputation in innovation, sustainability, and excellence in floriculture. A key factor in their success is the adoption of vaccuum cooling technology, an advanced method that rapidly reduces temperature and eliminates excess humidity, effectively placing flowers in a state of hibernation. Pablo Bazzani, General Manager of La Plazoleta explains to us: “Integrating Weber’s cutting-edge vacuum cooling technology has transformed our processes, driving measurable improvements in efficiency, freshness preservation, and customer satisfaction. Together, we have succeeded in delivering premium flowers that meet the highest global standards."

Located in Colombia, La Plazoleta is renowned for producing high-quality filler and focal flowers, including limonium, statice, solidago, and snapdragons. “Sustainability lies at the heart of our operations," says Pablo Bazzani.
"We blend eco-friendly growing techniques with the latest postharvest innovations to ensure not only the longevity and beauty of our flowers but also responsible stewardship of our environment. Our mission is clear—produce exceptional flowers while elevating customer satisfaction worldwide."
Our Journey with Weber Vacuum Coolers
Before using Vacuum Cooling, maintaining freshness during long-distance transport was a major challenge. Partnering with Weber Vacuum Group changed that.
Their technology cools products rapidly and evenly in minutes—lowering internal temperatures, controlling respiration, reducing moisture, and extending vase life. We've seen fewer returns, fewer complaints, and stronger customer loyalty. Now, we're expanding vacuum cooling to more stages of our production.
"The integration of vacuum cooling has fundamentally elevated our operations. We’ve achieved remarkable gains in efficiency, product longevity, and quality. This technology is now indispensable to our postharvest strategy."
