Culivers Eindhoven

What Culivers Eindhoven does

Culivers Eindhoven operates as the culinary production kitchen division of Sligro Food Group N.V. and is described as the largest production kitchen (productiekeuken) in the Netherlands. The facility is located at Meerenakkerweg 14, 5652 AV Eindhoven, and runs a team of professional chefs producing approximately 150,000 meals, meal components, soups, and sauces weekly. The core technology is large-scale mise-en-place and complete-meal preparation expertise executed by professional culinary staff for institutional foodservice customers.

The company's product portfolio combines two operational models. The first is a custom 'Client Only' production service in which Culivers scales and manufactures clients' own recipes, with preparation method, shelf life, packaging, and distribution fully specified per client. The second is a standard assortment of dishes and components commercialized under sub-brands Dinnerland and Meesterschap van het huis and distributed through Sligro's wholesale and retail channel in the Netherlands. Core product categories include complete meals, individual meal components, soups, and sauces.

Culivers generates revenue primarily through B2B food product sales to three primary customer segments: catering companies, hospitality businesses (horeca), and healthcare institutions (zorginstellingen). Pricing is quote-based and negotiated individually with B2B clients rather than publicly disclosed, and the go-to-market operates as a hybrid of channel partners (Sligro wholesale distribution for standard assortment) and direct enterprise sales for custom production. The business is a wholly-owned operating brand of Sligro Food Group N.V., a publicly listed Dutch foodservice conglomerate on Euronext Amsterdam, and is not independently publicly traded. Operations are confined to the Netherlands.
