TOP bv opens second location in the Netherlands

摘要

The Dutch food innovation company TOP bv has opened a second location in Helmond, The Netherlands. Helmond is located in the centre of a region where many SME food companies operate and it is also very close to the German border. The new location is fully geared to practical innovation, with a pilot plant where new food technologies can be tested. This way TOP wants to stimulate the innovative power of SME's even further. Practical innovation is part of TOP'S mission. In Helmond, kitchen- scale recipes can be easily translated into production- scale because of the direct access to a production facility. This is often a challenge for food companies, as they do not have the equipment to scale up, resulting in a slow down of the innovation process.
