Royal interest

27 september 2009

On Saturday 26 September 2009, the Development Cooperation 2.0 event took place in The Hague, and Return to Sender was among the guests!

Katja and Ronald van Zetten (HEMA CEO) participated in a talk show about development cooperation and the business community, alongside other public figures. Minister Koenders mentioned Return to Sender as an example of the right combination between development cooperation and socially-aware business. Return to Sender, after all, combines development aid and the business community, which is, according to

Minister Koenders, the way for development cooperation to be successful in the future. He believes that organisations like Return to Sender bring products from developing countries closer to the consumer. His Royal

Highness Prince Willem Alexander and Her Royal Highness Princess Maxima were also interested in Return to Sender. After speaking with Katja and Ronald van Zetten, they were presented with Return to Sender products.
