Royal Den Hartogh exists over 100 years and as a result also has a royal designation. A consistent course lays at our foundation, a steady course embraced by a clear focus. Values like respect, openness, taking initiative, people development and fun in business are our fundament.
“Fun in business is still one of our most important core values and although we pay a lot of attention to this, the connection within our teams sometimes came under pressure with many of us only meeting online as we continued to work from home.” – Pieter den Hartogh
It is great to see the efforts paid off. The recognition of belonging to the major Family Businesses where we ended at position 64 in the overall top 200 is a pleasant surprise.
