Introducing the company
In 1971, Jos van Loon started out as a butcher specialising in the catering trade at Jan Louwers’ wholesale centre in Eindhoven. Since then, the Van Loon Group has grown organically and through strategic acquisitions to become a leading, innovative Dutch producer of the tastiest and most sustainable meat and convenience products.
Our companies
Our head office is located in Son en Breugel; in the Netherlands, we are organised into two divisions – Meat and Convenience – and manufacture products at eight sites across the country. Since 2023, we have held a minority stake in Q-Food Belgium.
Van Loon Beef & Pork
As the Van Loon Group, we operate our own supply chains for pork and beef. Working alongside our livestock farmers and supply chain partners, we act as supply chain coordinators to ensure the ongoing development of our supply chain concepts in the areas of animal welfare, the environment and health. Van Loon Beef & Pork supplies pork and beef to other processing companies and to our industrial customers.

Our core values
Better every day
Ever since 1971, we have been constantly asking ourselves how we can do things better. How we can collaborate more effectively throughout the supply chain. How we can produce more efficiently and sustainably. That is why we continue to innovate, test and learn. Day in, day out. So that we can offer our customers and end-users the very best.
Proactive and creative
We look for solutions where others see threats. That is why we invest in a culture of entrepreneurship. Our aim is to deliver the best results by coming up with smarter and more innovative ideas every day.

We are proud of our family history. Since 1971, we have been a team of dedicated staff who understand that success can only be achieved by working together. As a team, we take responsibility, demonstrate decisiveness and perseverance, and thus have the right mindset to succeed together!
Our strategy
At the end of 2025, we updated our five-year strategic plan, STAP-27. For each strategic pillar, clear objectives for 2030 have been set out, along with a plan for achieving them. This programme has been named STAP-30 (Sustainable Tasteful Affordable Products – 2030).
To monitor progress on this strategic programme, the OGSM framework (Objectives-Goals-Strategies-Measures) is used throughout the organization. In this framework, ambitions and objectives are linked to the strategy, along with associated KPIs and actions. These actions contribute to the achievement of objectives; Achieving through Action. Every quarter, the results of the actions are evaluated, and adjustments are made where necessary.
