At VKW Limburg’s Annual Meeting on Monday 28 September, our three CEOs Burt, Carlos and Joeri signed the ‘Proud & Excellent Family Business’ charter. Nelissen is therefore among the first family businesses in Limburg to join this initiative.

The charter and its accompanying label are an initiative of VKW’s Centre of Expertise for Family Businesses. They highlight what family businesses stand for: doing business with a clear vision, strong values and a commitment to future generations.

By signing the charter, we commit to further developing a family business that is ready for the future. The charter includes concrete commitments relating to long-term value creation, family identity, professional governance, innovation and continuity, among other areas.

Looking ahead

“We are pleased to be among the first family businesses in Limburg to sign this charter. At Nelissen, we have been building our future for generations. This initiative reflects who we are and how we want to continue doing business: with respect for our roots and an eye on the future,” says co-CEO Carlos Jorissen.

As a family business, we maintain close relationships with our employees, customers and partners. The ‘Proud & Excellent Family Business’ label underlines these connections and our ambition to keep growing together.
