More about AVH Dairy

Goat dairy

Goat milk is characterised by a deliciously mild and creamy taste. The milk is pure and easily digestible. Goat milk has a high digestibility and consumption results in less cramps and less stomach and digestive complaints due to low level of αs₁-casein, absence of beta A1-casein, GABA presence, high amount of MCT, beta-palmitate and milk fat globule structure.

Goat milk products

Sheep dairy

Sheep milk is characterised by a deliciously full, mild and creamy taste. Sheep milk contains more protein and fat than goat milk and cow milk and is pure and easily digestible. Reason is that the fat globules in sheep milk, just as in goat milk, are smaller than those in cow milk and therefore decomposed quicker and absorbed through the body.

Since 1999, immediately after my studies, I have started my career in the dairy industry.

First as a Trade / Global Sales Executive and as from 01.01.2018 as Managing Director. I get my satisfaction from developing good personal relationships with customers, suppliers and my team and to work together to pursue common objectives. I am married with Jantina and together we have two sons (Melvin and Djairo).

Global Sales Executive

In 2004, I started working for AVH dairy trade B.V. as a logistics assistant but soon it became clear that working at sales was a much better choice for me.

As a Global Sales Executive I am responsible for Europe, Oceania and South America. Travelling, creating synergy between different companies, developing new markets and new products appeal to me very much and which I carry out with great enthusiasm. I am also part of the Management team.

Next to exercising, I love spending some time with my wife and two children.

Junior Sales Manager

Having started in 2019 as Junior Sales Manager, I’m one of the newest additions to the AVH family. With a bachelor’s degree in business management in the pocket I quite quickly realized that the food industry was the place to be for me. After several years of experience in the B2B and B2C market, I now support the AVH team when it comes to sales and relationship management within Asia and Europe. As one of my biggest passions is traveling, I’m fortunate enough to incorporate this within my work. In my down time I enjoy cooking as well as reading, and every Sunday you’ll be able to find me on the hockey pitch.

Junior QA & Technical Sales Support Manager

At the end of 2019 I graduated in the study Nutrition and Health at the Wageningen University. I performed my final internship at a dairy company and the dairy business directly fueled my interest. In 2020 I started as Junior QA & Technical Sales Support Manager at AVH dairy. I am really excited to kick-off my career at AVH dairy and I am curious to see which challenges the future holds for me. In my spare time I like to explore nature and love to spend time with my family and friends.
