- Poultry: Quality chicken, duck and turkey, carefully selected to meet every chef’s requirements.
- Game: The Driessen family has had a tradition with game since 1899. Hunting and game processing is what the current generation of Driessen grew up with. And although Driessen Food now stands for a lot more, the love for that craft has not diminished with it. Game is the most natural piece of free-range meat. Hunting is meant as fauna management, with which the hunter takes over the role of predator. And commercial hunting is often a source of income to keep natural areas well managed.
