HISTORY
- 1962
INTERDARM is founded in Rotterdam, The Netherlands by Niko C.

Rotterdam is chosen as headquarters because of the important location as port of entry for natural casings into Europe.

Business contacts with Mongolia are set up. This first visit will form the foundation for a strong and special partnership that lasts to this day.

The son, also named Niko Anastasyadis, joins the family business and over the years, he will develop himself as a technical expert for sheep casings and becoming a valuable asset to the company.

PEOPLE
People play an important role in our organization. INTERDARM natural casings are completely handmade by our skilled staff, who put their dedication into the final product every day. Our experienced selectors calibrate up to 8.000 meters every day!
But even with our highly motivated team, we cannot be successful all by ourselves. We place great value on the long-term partnerships we have built up in Poland, Egypt, China and New-Zealand. They play a key part in achieving a consistent, high product quality.
