Last Friday, 7 February, Thierry Aartsen, Member of the House of Representatives (Tweede Kamer) for the VVD, together with our chairman Ahmet Taskan, visited a few of our members in Brabant.
The first visit was to the supermarket chain Ken-Food. After a tour of the supermarket in Breda, there was a conversation with the owner about the state of affairs and the challenges facing entrepreneurs. Besides Breda, Ken-Food also has branches in Tilburg and Oss.

During the visit, Mr Aartsen listened attentively to the entrepreneurs regarding their challenges. For the members this was a good opportunity to speak directly with a member of parliament and to raise their situation and wishes with him directly.
There was also plenty of room to talk about entrepreneurship in general. We plan to do this more often in different regions with different politicians. If you have any suggestions and/or ideas, we would be glad to hear them.
