New Commercial Manager strengthens AGF team

In recent years, Robert has mainly worked with fresh produce. "I was Manager of the fresh products department at Sligro and responsible for everything in that department: AGF, bread, fish, cheese and meat products. I really enjoyed it there, but I missed the commercial side. I am someone who likes to be busy and win customers over." So in his new role as Commercial Manager AGF, all the pieces of the puzzle are coming together. After years of experience in the food and AGF sector, he is now making the step to a position where he can fully use his commercial drive and in-depth product knowledge. "The commercial playing field feels like coming home to me," he says.

Robert's ambition is to build a lasting relationship with every client. Clients - big or small - need to know what to expect from Normec. Contact is therefore very important to Robert. "I like to keep lines of communication short and give the customer attention for a long-term cooperation. I believe you are only truly successful when customers see you as a partner. My approach is personal and transparent, because honesty lasts the longest." In the coming period, Robert wants to take the time to get to know all customers. His plan is clear: "Build trust by doing what you promise and always thinking along in solutions. His role will not only be advisory, but also connecting. Robert sees it as his job to identify needs in the market and respond to them with appropriate solutions from Normec's wide range of services.

Besides his passion for food and cooking, Robert prefers to be outdoors as much as possible. "You can regularly find me running through the polder or plodding along in a bootcamp group. I'm adventurous and I love to travel."
