The decision has been made. The family business Nelissen Steenfabrieken may pin on the title of ‘Limburg Entrepreneur of the Year’. The brickmaker from Kesselt (Lanaken) made it to the finals against Tribù and Umami Group.
Nelissen Steenfabrieken in Lanaken is preparing for a sustainable future with a bold investment plan of at least 100 million euros. If all goes well, a new factory for bricks with ovens running on hydrogen will be created on an adjacent plot of land in Kesselt around 2027. This should provide 75 additional jobs.
What started out in 1983 as catering company Horeservi has since grown into the integrated group Umami in Genk. Today, Marleen Flemings’ company delivers the equivalent of 70,000 good quality, healthy meals a day. And you don’t have to worry about a thing.
