Arno van de Laar, Regional Director Europe at Topigs Norsvin: “We are pleased with the arrival of Geert Rombouts. With his knowledge and experience of both breeding and the Belgian pig industry, he will contribute to the further strengthening of the recently established new structure of Topigs Norsvin in Belgium, a structure that will contribute to strengthening the swine industry, for example by developing market concepts.”
Geert Rombouts about his new position: “With an open mind and almost 30 years of experience in international swine genetics, I want to examine together with the Belgian pig market how genetics can be used to strengthen the chain. That requires a breeding organisation with a strong international position, which it maintains through research and development. I felt Topigs Norsvin was the best choice for this.”
