This brand story is about 'Nine Marks in the Mix', in which we took Koninklijke De Kuyper's colleagues and relations on a culinary journey in the right spirit. We experienced nine signature moments from CEO Mark's nine years of leadership. These “Nine Marks” not only told an extraordinary story, but were also symbolic ingredients that came together at the end of the dinner. These ingredients ultimately formed a unique signature cocktail specially composed for Mark de Witte.

Of course, a simple reception was not enough for this farewell. The first day was for all employees of Koninklijke De Kuyper with a dinner in the heart of Royal De Kuyper: The Distillery. The party started already over dinner with a performance by Glennis Grace, and all 9 career markers came together in a signature cocktail: “9 Marks in the Mix”.

We kicked off the second day with a reception at Koninklijke De Kuyper's Distillery for colleagues and industry connections. Followed by an invitee dinner at the Putaine restaurant in Rotterdam. With a delicious dinner at the end of these festive days, we can look back on Mark's nice farewell, where appreciation for his work at Koninklijke De Kuyper was clearly highlighted.
