King's Presence Ignites Pride and Joy at Boon Edam's Celebration
Following the tour, King Willem-Alexander joined all of the employees and selected guests at the Experience Centre, where he engaged with attendees for a while before leaving the event.

This honour continues to signify the respect and trust given to us by Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands back in 2003. We take great pride in our strong community ties and firm dedication to our employees' welfare. This event reiterates our commitment to upholding these values, fostering a legacy built on trust and appreciation." Said Niels Huber, Owner and Chairman.
