A Grateful Farewell to Two Respected Leaders

On October 30th, Kiremko marked an important moment in its history by saying farewell to two long-standing directors, Paul Oosterlaken and Andy Gowing. For many years, they have been the face and driving force of the company, guiding it with vision, passion, and dedication.

Under their leadership, Kiremko has grown not only in size but also in innovation, sustainability, and teamwork, becoming a leading player in the global industrial potato processing sector. Their impact is visible in every department — from the factory floor to international projects and partnerships.

The farewell gathering brought the entire team together to share memories and appreciation over a serving of fries, as is tradition at Kiremko. It was a moment of pride, gratitude, and optimism for the future.

Paul and Andy, thank you for your leadership, your energy, and your lasting contribution to Kiremko’s success. Your legacy continues in every innovation and every colleague you’ve inspired.
