I have a long-lasting personal and professional friendship with Sebastiaan. We have both worked at the same organization and are now collaborating with our start-ups. He is one of the most inspiring and well-organized colleagues I have ever had. Sebastiaan is a smart and hard-working individual who loves taking up new challenges. He is one of the first few whom I seek advice and opinions both professionally and personally. At times, I am amazed by his professionalism and commitment to completing tasks and reaching goals no matter how big or small it is. His latest entry into Entrepreneurship, I believe, has further polished his deep-rooted skillsets in holistic E-commerce sales, marketing, and other details. Hands-on, I recommend Sebastiaan to anyone who is looking for services, partnerships, and consultations in the health & wellness or the E-commerce sector.

Sebastiaan is a very energetic teamplayer. He can easily multitask and manage different projects simultaneously. He is a creative thinker and as a member of the management team he is able to act at a strategic level. We enjoyed working with Sebastiaan at the Buurtboer and he helped us to move on to the next level.

      Did you know that supplements only do their job well if they are properly absorbed? When we learned from various health specialists that most supplements are absorbed by the body for only 20% and liposomal supplements are absorbed for 90%, our mission was crystal clear. Showing as many people as possible to the power of liposomal supplements. Start your Healthy Habit today! How? We offer highly absorbable personalized quality supplements via handy 100% paper day sachets or via powerful vitamin combinations/bundles. Thanks to our patented liposomal technology, the vitamins and minerals are absorbed directly into your bloodstream, well protected against acids en route in your stomach and delivered very precisely for maximum effect. “Inspiring people to build a healthy habit; because inspiration is what gets you started, a habit is what keeps you going” Show less

      Let’s make the world a slightly better place, one tea cup at a time. By reducing plastic waste (did you know pretty much all tea bags contain plastic?), fighting world poverty and reducing the use of pesticides. Simply by drinking Fairtrade & organic tea. These are the reasons TEAmwork Tea was founded. Available in subscription format as loose leaf tea or in sustainable compostable pyramid tea bags made without plastic, glue or bleach. Founder Claartje traveled to our plantation in Sri Lanka, where she met the women who pick every TEAmwork Tea leaf by hand. That is TRUE quality. You can taste the difference. Available for retail and horeca (b2b) but also as a monthly subscription delivered through your mailbox (b2c). Show less

      Testa is an organization that wants to replace products that are harmful to the sea with sustainable and better quality products. With Testa, we replace products that contain a large amount of fish. Testa wants to contribute to improving the biodiversity of the ocean. This can happen if it is possible to replace a significant portion of all fish oil with pure, fish-free Omega-3 within ten years. Testa Omega 3 is a 100% plant-based Omega-3 supplement. Our Omega-3 is made from CO2 neutral-grown algae, the wonder food of the fish. By these means, 23 herrings are saved per package - the number of fish needed for one jar of fish oil capsules.

      I have an entrepreneurial mindset and I love to try out new things. This is why I started Zoyummy (E-commerce company selling Food Boxes), together with a friend and 6 other people. In a very short time we were able to establish a complete supply chain from scratch and achieve country wide distribution of food boxes. We competed with the big guys like Hellofresh, Mathijs Maaltijdboxen, Marley Spoon and made ourselves known in the marketplace. If you search for Zoyummy then I am sure you will find us everywhere. After I was promoted at Trimb Healthcare I decided to stop with Zoyummy. We still receive emails from clients daily, asking us when we will go live again. This journey, together with a highly motivated and talented team, was a great experience and taught me more about entrepreneurship, skills I developed but also showed me that my motto “Everything is possible, realize your dreams” actually became true. Responsibilities (MANAGEMENT): ✔️ Increasing sales via Webshop, Online channels and growing client database. ✔️ Finding strategies to quickly adapt in a highly competitive market with a NEW Food box concept focussed on World Kitchens. ✔️ Responsible for setting-up partnerships and expanding the concept of Zoyummy via links on comparison sites, blog sites and other food related websites/platforms.
