De Heus invests in GHG impact and business continuity with own solar park in South Africa
As part of the commitment to environmental stewardship and responsible animal feed at De Heus, the company is working to reduce its carbon footprint worldwide. Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions generated in production and logistics are contributors to the carbon footprint, which is why De Heus has an ongoing programme of sustainability initiatives to tackle these emissions. Underlining the company’s dedication to advancing ecofriendly solutions within the animal nutrition industry at a regional level, it has recently developed a field of solar panels at one of its production facilities in South Africa. This decision was primarily driven by the GHG impact, but it also improves the operational resilience and business continuity.

Traineeship
Arno Willemink – COO Asia
Growing up on a dairy farm, as a child Arno Willemink (32) was naturally already involved in the livestock business. His Industrial Engineering and Management degree at the University of Twente would not lead him directly to the agriculture sector. In 2012, however, he embarked on an internship for De Heus Vietnam, doing market research about the Myanmar market which De Heus was planning to open up. This made him aware of the opportunities for Dutch agricultural companies abroad. After completing his master’s degree in Financial Engineering and Management, he started as Trainee Purchasing & Trading in 2015. Since 2018 Arno has lived in Asia, first as Purchasing Director Asia in Vietnam and since 2022 as COO Asia.
