Internship International Business
We at The Schippers Group have got an ideal and we love to tell about it…
The Schippers Group is originally a Dutch company and does not deny its origins. In fact The Netherlands is the second agricultural exporter in the world and Dutch livestock farming is at the forefront when it comes to knowledge development and innovation. The Schippers Group plays an important role here and also brings this knowledge abroad. Would you like to help us with this? Then the Internship International Business is something for you!
Improve animal health
We help our farmers to reduce the use of antibiotics by (further) improving animal health. We do this by developing and selling innovative products and concepts. In addition, we train and coach our customers in the field of farm hygiene. Result: In countries where we are active, the use of antibiotics is decreasing tremendously; so we are really on the right track!
The Schippers Group is conquering the world!
We are growing at lightning speed and in mid-2021 we moved into a hypermodern head office of 42,000 m2 near Eindhoven (the Netherlands). We extend our "standard range" to more than 100,000 products and are now active in more than 40 countries worldwide. Within 5 years every farmer must have access to MS Schippers products anywhere in the world.
Meanwhile our growth has resulted in 500+ employees, 25,000+ products and 12+ offices; we are increasingly positioning ourselves in an international market. The growth of recent years has made us realise that the possibilities are endless. We are more ambitious than ever and we make every effort to let our customers farm even better.
