On September 9, 2015, Loison was very pleased to welcome Vincent Koole, Confectionery Buyer at Sligro Food Group and EMTÉ, a chain of full-service supermarkets owned by the Group.

The Veghel-based company is active in all the main segments of the food retail and foodservice markets in the Netherlands. Sligro Food Group has been Loison’s customer for almost 10 years and is one of the top distributors in the industry, both in terms of importance and of sales volumes abroad. The Group will soon expand to the rest of Europe and the world.

For Loison, this visit was a source of pride, since such customers rarely go visit their suppliers. Mr. Koole traveled to Italy on a gastronomic tour that included stops to confectionery companies in Cremona, Arona, Caravaggio and, of course, Costabissara, where Dolciaria Loison is based. The goal of his visit was to test first-hand the craftsmanship and quality of Loison products, as well as to strengthen business relations with suppliers.

The meeting was followed by a tour of the company and a tasting of some excellent confections offered by company owner Dario. This included his latest products for 2015.

Judging from Mr. Koole‘s enthusiasm and satisfaction, we believe that we fully met his expectations and we’ll see him again soon.
