Geysen Group was founded over 30 years ago by Alex Geysen and his wife, Monique Maes. From the very beginning, both Alex and Monique have had a deep commitment to their employees \u2014 one of the company\u2019s greatest strengths.<\/p>

Today, three of their four children are actively involved in the company. Their eldest daughter, Veronique Geysen, has been with the business for over 25 years. As a member of the executive team, she is now Alex\u2019s trusted right hand and a key support for all employees. Pieter-Jan Geysen is responsible for purchasing, infrastructure, and leads projects for Geysen Innovation | Clean Conveyor Belt. Roselien Geysen joined the family business as head of marketing and communication and has since grown into the role of operations manager.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
