Pioneering sustainable aquaculture for a growing world

At De Heus, we believe in more than just providing feed; we aim for a sustainable and efficient aquaculture. In a world witnessing rapid population growth and increasing demand for animal protein, we recognize the need for responsible and high productive forward-thinking practices. De Heus aims to be part of an aquaculture industry that is recognized for productive sustainable farming and positive global impact.

Farmers: the guardians of biodiversity

For centuries, extensive cattle farming has helped shape the unique landscape of Spain’s western region. Rural areas in Western Spain are increasingly being deserted by young people due to lack of opportunities. Facing a lack of succession, many aging farmers eventually go out of business. And with grazing cattle disappearing, the delicate balance of the grassland ecosystem is under serious threat. A group of passionate researchers, agricultural experts and local farmers are on a mission to revitalise the extensive farmer’s profession. Leading the efforts of De Heus in this initiative is Jesús Carrizo, Technical Director at De Heus Spain.

Planting mangrove forests to contribute to sustainability

Mangrove forests are an important tool in the fight against climate change. That's why the Indonesian government has committed to an ambitious programme of mangrove reforestation in the coming years. As part of its sustainability activities, De Heus Indonesia partnered with the government in a mangrove planting project in East Java. Based on the results of this project, our colleagues are using the knowledge and experience gained to develop other mangrove projects.

Marcin Wojno - Warehouse Manager

Marcin Wojno has worked for De Heus since 2011, having joined the team at the Łomża plant as a warehouse manager. He already had experience in both team management and working in a warehouse, but had no idea about the feed industry and production. However, he was interested by the job and the company with its established position on the market, respect for its employees, and the potential development opportunities and independence. So, he decided to apply.

Tim van der Vegt – Trainee Finance and Strategy/M&A

Having spent most of his childhood in Indiana (US) growing up on a large dairy farm, it may not come as a surprise to those close to Tim that he chose the traineeship at De Heus. When he and his family moved back to the Netherlands in 2014, Tim finished high school in Assen and decided to study Econometrics with a specialization in Quantitative Finance at Erasmus University in Rotterdam. Among the many traineeships available for prospective starters, the traineeship at De Heus especially excited him.
