Kiremko Celebrates 50th Anniversary

On Friday, May 19th, Kiremko celebrated its 50th anniversary and the opening of the company’s new building.

The officials of the company received guests from all over the world to celebrate this special milestone. Among the participants, there were clients, partners and company employees.

The company’s anniversary celebration included speeches from top-level management representatives, as well as a keynote discourse by the Secretary-General of the Ministry of Economic Affairs in the Netherlands, Maarten Camps, who congratulated Kiremko on its anniversary and business practices.

The hundreds of guests in attendance were shown a movie documenting the history of Kiremko, from the early beginnings, going through all the major highlights of the company up to the present day. The informative and emotional video presentation also included testimonials from partner companies, such as Reyco Systems and Idaho Steel, whose representatives explained why they value their business relationship with Kiremko and what the mutual benefits are for all parties involved.

The gala dinner was preceded by a show performed by illusionist Hans Klok, followed by a complete tour of the new Kiremko facility, where the company’s employees guided the guests through all the areas which featured the latest equipment innovations, explaining every step of the production process.

Dan Orehov, the managing editor of Potato Processing International attended the event and has obtained an exclusive interview, which we invite you to read in our next print issue of the magazine.
