Specialising in accessories and small appliances for this activity sector, it quickly directed its development to the sale of electric ovens, which it promoted for many years.<\/p>\n

It was only some years later that it extended its activities to the whole country through the manufacture and sale of coffee machines, the famous Samovar. At this time tearooms, caf\u00e9s, restaurants and hotels made up the greater part of its customer base.<\/p>\n

The 50\u2019s and the massive demand for the production of coffee for workers and employees in large industries and organisations would permit the company to discover the canteen and large-scale catering worlds in which it very quickly rooted itself.<\/p>\n

It was also during the immediate post-war period that particularly close links were confirmed with certain German manufacturers, including the Meiko GmbH company, a factory that Monsieur Gaston Luyckx helped to revive from its ashes by supplying the stainless steel coils needed for the manufacture of dishwashers.<\/p>\n

The growth in collective catering within businesses and both public and private institutions gave the company managers the possibility of considerably enlarging the sales programme with meal preparation and dishwashing equipment.<\/p>\n

In\u00a0 the 70\u2019s, when the real self-service meal distribution and fast food concepts were born, Sabemaf toke part in the birth and development of the Belgian Quick chain with which collaboration would continue for several decades.<\/p>\n

During the 90\u2019s and the 2000\u2019s the company refined its profile as a partner for large-scale institutions and experienced its greatest structural modifications. It was effectively during this period that the Sabemaf Luxembourg s.a. subsidiary was created, that s.p.r.l. Cuisines Sechehaye company was been taken over by Sabemaf s.a.\u00a0 and that both companies moved in 2008 to their actual location in the industrial area of Wavre Nord site.<\/p>\n

Currently still an independent family business, with the strengths of its history, its team and its partners, Sabemaf s.a. is resolutely a dynamic, flexible, proactive and innovative business for our time.<\/p>\n

The family shareholders are more than ever associated with the life of the company. Active in the board of directors they are always present at the Annual General Meeting and events organised for or by the company\u2019s employees. They want to consolidate the business and give it the means to invest, they actively support the strategy pursued by the general management a moderate dividend distribution policy.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
