“Sustainability is a team sport: you need the cooperation of the whole team to reach your goal, the right support and expertise to prepare you for the game, and the focus on shared longer-term success instead of personal short-term glory.”

Kimberly de Liguori Carino, Sustainability Manager, Royal Koopmans

Royal Koopmans, founded in 1846, by Uilke Klazes Koopmans, is a Dutch family-owned company specialising in innovative grain-based food solutions. Headquartered in Leeuwarden, their own in-house innovation centre and two specialised production facilities offer a wide range of products including high-quality flours, specialty batters, and innovative food coatings.

With nearly 180 years of expertise, the company focuses on developing tasty and healthy products that meet evolving consumer demands, while pioneering in local sourcing, transparent supply chains and sustainable agriculture at scale. This is achieved through close partnerships within the supply chain as well as close cooperation with NGOs and academia.

Royal Koopmans goal is for every grain processed to contribute to the restoration of nature, within a business model that benefits every link in the chain. This is why they focus on regenerative agriculture, where arable farmers receive fair compensation, bakers can differentiate themselves and consumers can contribute to a healthier food system through their every-day choice, without compromising on taste.
