NNZ builds a school in Bangladesh: the start

In cooperaton with the Quasem Foundation

In 1922, almost 100 years ago, NNZ was founded as a trading company in jute packaging by Marinus Gijsbertus Boot and therefore responsible for the start of the wonderful journey that we participate in on a daily basis. A journey in which markets are explored, technologies are embraced and innovation is brought to the world of packaging. One of the first countries visited during our journey is Bangladesh, where the origin of jute, one of the most sustainable packaging materials, is located.

Education is one of the pillars for the development of Bangladesh, that is why we choose to build a school together with Quasem Foundation. The school is scheduled to open in our anniversary year, 2022, as you can see the construction site is in preparation.

We will be sharing more photos and video’s during the build. If you would like more information about this project, feel free to contact us.
