Last Friday, we took another important step toward future-proof growth. We are strengthening our shareholder structure. Menno van Breemen (CCO) and Jasper van der Sandt (COO) have increased their equity stake in the company, reinforcing their long-term commitment. Jack Aartsen (CEO) will remain the majority shareholder. This strategic move aligns perfectly with our long-term vision, creating a strong foundation for innovation, growth, and investment. “We believe in Aartsen’s strength and potential. This is a key milestone that allows us to uphold our family values while fully focusing on the future,” say Menno and Jasper. With this important shareholder transition, Aartsen reinforces its market position and remains agile in serving both producers and customers and all our relations in the best possible way. #nonstopfresh

Kenny joined the IT team at Aartsen in early March 2024. He started as a System Administrator but quickly grew into the role of Application Engineer. In this role, he mainly focuses on our own ERP system, Fresh. Before Kenny joined Aartsen, strawberries and bananas were always at the top of his favorite fruits list. However, after tasting the delicious pineapples and melons, they've also made their way to the top.🍍 In his free time, Kenny enjoys walking with his dog and often goes for long hikes in the woods. On weekends, he likes spending time with friends, and occasionally he heads to a festival for some fun and excitement. He’s known for always being ready for a good conversation and for being someone who can really get the work done! We’re happy to have such a star on our team! 🙌 #nonstopfresh
