Carfil Quality supports the life science sector

Entrepreneur

There are a lot of definitions of what an entrepreneur is…

In 1980 my father, Gustaaf Huybrechts, started the company Carfil Quality. At that time, not much was known about diets for life science animals. Although he had the experience of making animal feed, he took on the challenge of starting a new business. He was a real innovator. ?

During his first year as a pioneer, the diets range expanded and he also added bedding to his range. As a little boy, I admired over all those years the passion and drive with which he worked to build out the business.

In 1998 I came into the company and started to learn what an entrepreneur is and what it takes to be one:

  • Dedication
  • Patience
  • Listening to customers
  • Developing solutions
  • Continuously looking for opportunities
  • Market research
  • etcetera

By listening to the needs of our customers, we have expanded our range over the past 4 decades to what it is today. Today we serve satisfied customers in more than 10 countries and our business keeps on growing every year. 

After 25 years I am still extremely grateful that my father gave me the opportunity to be part of Carfil Quality. I still enjoy every single second of being an entrepreneur. It gives me the drive, the daily energy to work on having happy and satisfied customers. Those customers are the ones who help you grow, not only as a company but also as a person.
