Global snacking manufacturer with 10+ brands across 7 production regions
Lotus Bakeries is a multinational snacking company operating across indulgent and nutritional segments with a portfolio spanning caramelised biscuits, healthy snacks, and specialty cakes. The tech stack is deeply SAP-centric (FI, CO, S/4HANA, Analytics Cloud, BW, HANA, QM, WM, IBP) paired with Databricks, AWS, and Python for analytics—a classic enterprise manufacturing footprint optimizing for finance, supply-chain visibility, and operational efficiency. Active projects center on SAP end-to-end rollout, production capacity expansion, and energy/waste reduction, with ongoing pain points in finance application optimization and cross-location security.
Lotus Bakeries manufactures and distributes snacking products across 10 brand portfolios (Lotus, Biscoff, nākd, TREK, BEAR, Kiddylicious, Peter's Yard, Dinosaurus, Peijnenburg, Annas) to retail, foodservice, and direct-to-consumer channels globally. Headquartered in Belgium since 1932, the company operates production facilities in Belgium, Netherlands, France, Sweden, South Africa, United States, and Thailand (new facility operationalizing through 2026). With approximately 4,150 employees, 20 regional sales organisations across four continents, and commercial partnerships in ~50 countries, Lotus Bakeries serves as a mid-market manufacturer scaling internationally. The organisation remains privately held by the Boone and Stevens family, with equity listed on Euronext Brussels.
