PROFOOD NETHERLANDS BV

Business activity



PROFOOD is your international trading partner in import and export of meat and meat products, seafood and vegetables.



History



Philipp Rhode founded PROFOOD as a trading company in Germany early in 2000. Once our business in the meat industry was established, we sought to widen the spectrum of trade from meat to other food products. We wanted the trade name PROFOOD to become known within the food industry in a much wider sense. We take pride in the fact that our company has been able to expand so fast into the fish and vegetable trade. Since inception PROFOOD has become a worldwide player, with a monthly turnover of +/- 4,000tons of meat and meat products. In spite of its youth PROFOOD is able to draw on the experience and knowledge of three generations in the meat industry. Philipp Rhode comes from a family that have owned and run their own meat cutting plant for 78 years.



In the course of time PROFOOD has opened trading offices in the following countries:



Shanghai/ China

Kuala Lumpur/ Malaysia

Cebu/ Philippines

England

Czech Republic

Croatia



Since the retirement of director Michael Rhode from the management team and the accession of Theo van Aalst, as a director in June 2009, PROFOOD has followed an expansion strategy, founding Profood Netherlands B.V. in Holland. With a further packing plant in Holland, PROFOOD has been able to increase its packing and freezing capacity and product range.
