The range of products and labels that Van Loon Group can offer its customers is enormous. Whether you are looking for an innovative meat substitute, a good piece of meat or an ultra fresh meal? We produce it!
We supply raw materials from our own pig and beef chains to our own processing companies and other meat processors. We have an extensive range of fresh meat products. From natural steaks and bacon to tasty marinated or seasoned ham and schnitzels. Many products are available all year round, but we also offer seasonal ranges for BBQs, Easter and Christmas, for example. Our R&D staff ensure that our range is up to date and responds to the changing needs of our consumers.
Our minced meat products are valued for their excellent price-quality ratio and easy, quick preparation. The extensive range of minced meat and minced meat specialities includes various types of hamburgers, meatballs, minced meat cutlets, meat rolls and sausages. All products are made from beef or pork from our own animal chains.

Due to a lack of knowledge and time in the kitchen, the demand for convenience solutions is increasing. Over the years, we have developed a wide range of cooked meat products. Using techniques such as grilling, boiling, smoking, frying, stewing or sous-vide cooking, both consumers and professional chefs can choose extremely tasty products that can be served in no time. Think of cooked spare ribs, smoked chicken, pulled pork and winter stews.
The products consist partly of meat or poultry and partly of plant-based proteins. Thanks to the plant-based fibres we have developed ourselves, the hybrid products retain the right taste and user experience. This helps our customers achieve their sustainability goals, while consumers benefit from improved nutritional values.

More and more often, we don't feel like cooking, but we still want to eat tasty and healthy food. The Convenience division produces delicious chilled meals that are easy for consumers to prepare. From Asian dishes to a traditional Dutch stew with smoked sausage or a Surinamese roti. The honest ingredients and innovative range are the answer to the growing demand for ready-made meals.
The range of fresh soups is diverse and suitable for every season. A creamy asparagus soup in spring, a cold gazpacho in summer or a hearty pea soup in winter? All flavours are available in small and large portion packs, and our chefs are happy to advise on the contents, presentation and packaging for our customers or guests.

Fresh pasta sauces have been added to the range. These allow consumers to vary their meals at home to their heart's content and put a delicious, authentic pasta meal on the table in no time.
For food professionals, there is a wide range of basic salads and sauces. By adding time, skill and fresh ingredients, distinctive artisanal products are created that can be sold with pride in any speciality shop or catering establishment.

Consumers must be able to rely on healthy, safe and sustainable meat products, meat substitutes and ready meals. This requires thoroughly hygienic and food safe production processes:
In the food processing industry, quality is a wide-ranging term. Van Loon Group is committed to continuously improving the quality of its products and ensuring the greatest possible security. Each of us strives towards this, every day – not only our QA (Quality Assurance) department.
Food products are perishable products. Our processes, systems and processes are, therefore, fully adapted to optimising hygiene and food safety and constantly being monitored. Naturally, all Van Loon Group companies are certified BRC or IFS Higher Level.
Each year, we carry out 400+ of internal audits (including Hygiene, Order and Neatness – Hygiëne, Orde en Netheid / HON) and undergo 60+ of external audits. We also carry out more than 25,000 microbiological analyses each year, including raw materials, end products and process water.
Van Loon Group strives to fully understand each step in the chain. This makes the whole process (‘from farmer to plate’) transparent to us, but also to our clients and ultimately the consumer. We always know exactly what the source of our raw materials is. That offers a feeling of security.
Van Loon Group has 11 unique quality certifications (such as IFS, Better Life, Bio…) and 49 further certificates across 11 locations.

We have the ambition of being and remaining the most sustainable producer of our industry. From solar panels on the roof to stimulating employees towards ‘sustainable behaviours’. And from heat recovery to reducing waste water contamination levels. This is just a selection from the full range of measures that Van Loon Group puts into practice. We do everything we can to minimise our footprint while sustaining the continuity of our organisation. Our state-of-the-art sustainable production site in Son is a perfect example of this.
