Extensive and interesting agenda to mark the seal anniversary

« From zero to over 17 billion euros in 15 years – that’s more than enough reason to celebrate and look back. And, of course, to look ahead to future developments » says VLOG Managing Director Alexander Hissting. « In our anniversary year, we have therefore put together a particularly interesting and extensive agenda with many exciting panel guests from industry, politics and research for our VLOG .:. Forum. An ideal opportunity to reminisce and exchange views on our joint successes and to discuss current challenges, opportunities and prospects for the ‘Ohne GenTechnik’ seal« .

With the Molkerei Berchtesgadener Land dairy, which has been a user of the « Ohne GenTechnik » seal from the very beginning, VLOG was able to gain an ideal and particularly authentic sponsoring partner for the seal anniversary and all associated events. Bernhard Pointner, Managing Director of Molkerei Berchtesgadener Land: « Our farmers from the mountain and Alpine region have never had to rely on genetically modified feed such as soymeal or rapeseed, and it has always contradicted our joint understanding of natural, trustworthy dairy production. Today, 44 products from the Molkerei Berchtesgadener Land bear the official VLOG « Ohne GenTechnik » seal. »
