Netherlands: NNZ 'the packaging network' celebrates its 90th anniversary

NNZ was founded on the 22nd of October 1922 by Marinus Gijsbertus Boot as 
the North Netherlands Sack Trade: a trading house for burlap sacks in 
Groningen with international ambitions. On the 26th of October, 2012 NNZ will celebrate its 90th anniversary. In the past ninety years, NNZ Groningen grew to be a multinational company with 180 employees worldwide, which creates 
packaging solutions for its customers in the agricultural and industrial market. 
One reason for this success is the commitment NNZ shows to its customers.

This important milestone will be marked by donating three boats to Oxfam 
Novib in Bangladesh. The boats have been named: Marinus, Will and Wim in honor of 
those members of the Boot family that contributed to the success of NNZ. "Our 
90th anniversary is a major milestone for NNZ" says Len Boot, CEO of the 
company. "We are delighted that our customers recognise the value of our 
products and services. The results of this joint effort, including the family, our 
employees and partners worldwide, motivates us all to continue down this 
road so we can celebrate our 100th anniversary in the year 2022. "

NNZ
NNZ is a social and market-oriented company with the immediate goal of 
creating packaging solutions for its customers through a worldwide packaging 
network in the fruit and vegetables sector, as well as in the industrial sector. 
NNZ's international network is active in more than 50 countries around the 
world, both in procurement and sales as well as in the development of products and 
markets. Despite NNZ's international orientation our philosophy remains 
unchanged: "Focus on local!" Within this philosophy, the centrally controlled 
disciplines create conditions in which the various NNZ locations can function 
optimally in the area of sales, logistics, service and direct marketing.
