As an entrepreneur in the food sector, you permanently face many challenges. As a producer and/or trader, you have to deal with growing customers, which means you have to guard against excessive dependence on one or a few customers and/or countries. In addition, growth often takes place outside the Netherlands, with all its financing risks.
For importers, competition with Asia, South America and the Middle East is increasing, making imports at favourable payment terms less and less obvious. In addition, the volatility of the trade and supply chain has increased sharply.
On the other hand, Dutch companies have a great reputation as exporters of quality products and innovative products and services.
Foodservice companies and retailers are increasingly aware of the need to invest in partnerships with producers and suppliers to jointly achieve sales growth, margin and quality improvement and to counteract possible inefficiencies. Companies that are structurally committed to sustainability, health and quality also create opportunities for growth.
Kruger advises food producers and trading companies on a regular basis, both strategically and in the optimisation of the business situation.
