As every year, the crowdfunder trip to the Mani region took place again this harvest season. During this trip, we also held our 5th crowdfunder meeting. Seventeen crowdfunders were on-site to experience the meeting live, and over 80 additional crowdfunders from Germany, Austria, and Switzerland joined virtually. Julia Löschenbrand-Bläuel moderated the event from Austria, ensuring everyone – both in-person and digital participants – stayed connected.
Kickoff to the Meeting: The Visit-Friendly Factory
Our visitor-friendly factory in Greece has become a popular destination for olive lovers. Since its opening, we have already welcomed over 4,000 visitors! As an introduction, Burgi Bläuel led participants through our visitor area via video. You can watch the video about our tours here.
A Successful Year for MANI Bläuel
Felix and Fritz Bläuel then provided guests with insights into the developments of the past year. From important awards such as the Gault&Millau and the Trigos Award to our very positive economic developments – the past year has confirmed our commitment to sustainable products.
A Moment of Delight: Olive Tasting
A highlight of the meeting was the olive tasting, led by Giorgos Dallianis and Anna-Maria Rebholz from our quality department. They guided us through the diverse flavors of our table olives – a warm thank you for this extraordinary experience!
Our Traditional Group Photo
Once again, we gathered all attendees on stage for the group photo. This lovely tradition brings our meeting to a close each year.
Recording and Outlook for the New Year
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all participants for their great interest and look forward to the next time. For those who missed the meeting, the recording is available here.
Sincerely,
Your Bläuel Family and the entire MANI Team
