From Firefighting to Foundations: Entobel’s Journey to Resilience and Efficiency
The air at Entobel's factory last year was thick with a mixture of anticipation and, frankly, a palpable sense of chaos. It was an intensely challenging time - a true baptism by fire. We were in the throes of commissioning our new factory - a critical step, but one fraught with unforeseen challenges. As I recall, “We were just opening the plant, ramping up, and we faced all those issues at once. It is somewhat normal for any new factory, but it does not make it any easier.” We aptly called it our "firefighting" era – days defined by immense pressure and long nights wrestling with solutions, yet they were also the times when our team spirit and sheer determination shone brightest.Alexandre de Caters – Co-Founder of Entobel - May 29, 2025
