At our production location in Leeuwarden, we work with over 700 colleagues from various backgrounds in different disciplines. Every day, we are busy producing high-quality condensed milk products. Our market share of all condensed milk products consumed worldwide is 10 percent. To achieve this, more than 700 million liters of milk flow through our pipes and our high-tech installations every year. But it doesn't stop there, because we also take care of the entire processing and packaging process. For example, in the 'Can Factory', we make the packaging material (the cans) in which the products are packed. Once these cans are filled, closed, and labeled, they are packed in boxes and stored on pallets in the warehouse. This way, the products are ready to go all over the world under well-known brand names such as Peak, Bonnet Rouge, and Friesche Vlag!
