CEO Gerrit-Jan Wesselink began with a financial analysis focusing on budget targets, results to date and the forecast. He then spoke about the challenges in the procurement of raw materials. Although rainfall was high overall in 2024, a better distribution of this led to a more stable potato harvest compared to the previous year. Overall, the starch content of the harvest provided a solid basis for production. Wesselink praised the flexibility of the Emsland Group&#8217;s raw materials department and the cooperation with the farmers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CSO Christian Kemper then spoke about market developments. He analyzed the price development of the various products and emphasized the Emsland Group&#8217;s position as a quality leader. At the same time, he pointed out that the competition is not resting and that continuous adjustments are necessary.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>COO Stefan Hannemann then reported on current projects in the production area. Important investments include the construction of a new reaction vessel (ROxy) with planned commissioning at the end of 2025 and the construction of a fully automated logistics hall, which is scheduled for completion in summer 2026. Together, these projects represent an investment volume of more than 50 million euros. In addition, a new potato washing and grating station is to be built at the Emlichheim plant. Significant investments are also planned or have already been implemented at other plants, including a large silo in Kyritz, a wastewater treatment plant in Gol\u00dfen, a new food retail line and raw material collection troughs in Hagenow, the modernization of bagging in Wittingen and new roller dryers with an improved heating concept in Cloppenburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8521-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11059\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8521-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8521-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8521-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8521-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8521-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8521-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8559-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11061\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8559-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8559-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8559-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8559-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8559-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8559-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8550-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11063\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8550-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8550-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8550-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8550-1536x2048.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8550-600x800.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/www.emsland-group.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_8550-scaled.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end, Gerrit-Jan Wesselink thanked everyone involved and highlighted the solid position of the Emsland Group.
