Freriksen Vleesbedrijf V.O.F.

What Freriksen Vleesbedrijf V.O.F. does

Freriksen Vleesbedrijf V.O.F. is a Dutch artisanal meat processor and supplier founded in 2001 by Erik-Jan Freriksen in Nijverdal and relocated in 2003 to a purpose-built, E.E.G.-compliant facility (now operating from Strootsweg 40, 7547 RW Enschede). The company was acquired by Bolscher B.V. in 2021 and now operates as a subsidiary while retaining the Freriksen brand for retail and wholesale customers. Its product portfolio spans a 'totaal vleesassortiment' covering beef, pork, veal, chicken/turkey, lamb, game, processed meats, deli meats, meat platters, BBQ assortments, and pre-curated Vleespakketten (Populair, Culinair, Excellent, De Luxe). Products are produced by experienced butchers using traditional artisan methods, custom-cut, seasoned (naturel, gekruid, gemarineerd), vacuum-sealed, and delivered to client specification.

Underlying operations are built on E.E.G. recognition (number 3164), H.A.C.C.P. compliance, the Dutch Hygiene Code for Butchers, continuous third-party microbiological monitoring, and full traceability from raw material to finished product. Ten products have been awarded Gold certification at the international Slavakto butcher competition (Jaarbeurs Utrecht, September 2022). Distribution is via dedicated B2B field sales, wholesale distributor relationships, and (previously) a direct-to-consumer e-commerce channel now redirected to Bolscher's proefdeperfectie.nl platform.

The company serves three primary customer segments: Horeca (restaurants, hotels, catering) on custom-made, made-to-order terms; Groothandel (wholesale distributors/grossiers) supplying artisan meat for resale; and Particulieren (consumers) via home delivery of pre-curated packages and individual products. Pricing is unit-based, inclusive of BTW (VAT), with minimum-order thresholds for delivery. Geographic reach is concentrated in Twente, Salland, and Achterhoek for direct delivery, with national ('landelijke') routes for larger Horeca and wholesale clients. The V.O.F. partnership structure, 7-employee headcount, and absence of disclosed revenue indicate a small-scale, privately held operator now consolidated within the Bolscher group.
