Mark completed his agricultural training in 1997 before following in his father&#8217;s footsteps.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2007<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The company officially passes from father to son. Hard work, honesty and responsible entrepreneurship still form the basis of our successful company. Continuing the company along these lines is still our goal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2014<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In mid-2014, we acquired the packaging company located on the Havenweg in Dinteloord. This is where our main production facility is currently located. Partly due to the increased capacity, we were also able to expand into various export markets. We have developed into one of the largest potato packers in the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<p>Our unique selling point is that we sell and deliver directly from the source to our customers. This allows us to guarantee the best product for the right price.[\/vc_column_text]<style>.ld_spacer_6a674100bfc4d{height:10px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"ld-empty-space ld_spacer_6a674100bfc4d\"><span class=\"liquid_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div><style>.ld_spacer_6a674100c00cf{height:32px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"ld-empty-space ld_spacer_6a674100c00cf\"><span class=\"liquid_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div>[\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243; enable_content_animation=&#8221;yes&#8221; ca_init_scale_x=&#8221;1.25&#8243; ca_init_scale_y=&#8221;1.25&#8243; ca_init_scale_z=&#8221;1&#8243; ca_init_opacity=&#8221;0&#8243; ca_an_scale_x=&#8221;1&#8243; ca_an_scale_y=&#8221;1&#8243; ca_an_scale_z=&#8221;1&#8243; ca_an_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; offset=&#8221;vc_col-md-offset-1 vc_col-md-6&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1532332993199{padding-right: 15px !important;padding-left: 15px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>2019<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Despite some negative reports about our company, we are making every reasonable effort to carry on. Taking into consideration the local area and its residents and environment issues is certainly important to us. We are always open to discussing such matters and are happy to look for suitable solutions. We hope to continue in a positive way in the coming years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2020<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This year we are taking extra steps towards operating a sustainable business. For example, our roof has been largely renewed and the parts containing asbestos professionally removed. Not only that, because our roofs will also be covered with solar panels this year. So not only will we be a bit more sustainable ourselves, but we will also be putting the surface area of our premises to good use.[\/vc_column_text]<style>.ld_spacer_6a674100c03ed{height:25px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"ld-empty-space ld_spacer_6a674100c03ed\"><span class=\"liquid_empty_space_inner\"><\/span><\/div>[vc_single_image image=&#8221;8445&#8243;
