About Plukon
Get to know us
Food plays an important role in everyday life. Every day, our products reach millions of people across Europe. Whether they are enjoyed at home or in a restaurant, our products are part of everyday moments. From poultry and vegetables to salads, meal components and ready-made meals, we work on products that reach consumers across Europe.
At Plukon, we believe in looking ahead and continuously improving. That ambition is reflected in our theme: Think Fresh. Act Fresh. Make Fresh. Every change starts with an idea (Think), becomes reality through collaboration (Act), and results in products people enjoy every day (Make).
Plukon was founded in 1894 as a poultry company. The name stands for Pluimvee Kombinatie Nederland (Poultry Combination Netherlands). Since then, we have continued to grow and develop. Today, we also process vegetables and alternative proteins and produce meal components, ready-made meals and salads for customers across Europe
