About  Beyers Koffie 

Beyers has been taking coffee further since its founding in Antwerp, in 1880 - more than 140 years ago.

Since then Beyers - as part of the Sucafina group - has grown to become the largest coffee roaster in Belgium and a key player in the European private label coffee market striving to deliver excellent quality.

Today, Beyers serves major retail players and coffee roasters in Europe, with a roasting capacity of 30.000 tons, a total of 180 employees in 5 different countries and sales approaching 180 million €.

Its vision for the future is to become the leading sustainable private label coffee roaster in Europe.

The challenge 

Beyers Koffie needs the capacity to recruit some niche & technical roles requiring 'rare to find' experience often combined with competence in several languages.

For example, Beyers Koffie needed to recruit their new Sustainability & Compliance officer, a role that needed expertise and knowledge of the full Belgian & European legislation in the area of coffee.

The Solution

3. use of robust assessment tool in order to evaluate the managerial capabilities of our shortlisted candidates.

The results

We are proud to mention the recent recruitment of the Sustainability & Compliance Officer, a strategic and key role for Beyers Koffie given its mission to become a leading player in the area of sustainability.
