Introduction
Hi everyone,
This week, HelloFresh had a very special visitor: Sinterklaas!
In the Netherlands, Sinterklaas is celebrated on 5 December, bringing gifts, sweets, and festive cheer.
In this newsletter, you can check the best moments of the visit, a new food safety fact, an IT message, and much more!
Enjoy reading!
Key Performance Indicators of week 48
Boxcount 152.650 (-1587)
MPB 8.51 (-0.19)
Errors 1.11% (-0.04)
Boxcount 2817 (+11)
MPB 7.72 (-0.25)
Errors. 0.95% (-0.06)
Boxcount 6406 (-268)
MPB 1.83 (+0.07)
*Week 43's high error rate is due to a production prep incident. At assembly, RTH menus 68 and 69 (salmon penne and beef burger) were accidentally switched all week due to a mistake in the "RTH Overview" printout. As a result, all customers received the other meal and had to be compensated. This bulk upload accounts for 0.7% of the error rate (~950 customers).
**The numbers between the parenthesis () are comparisons with last box week.
***For MPB calculation splitted boxcount is used. Hours of sick leave and vacation, as well as hours of seniors on the shop floor and technical department hours are not taken into account

Reminder for all our frontline employees: C02 Mobility Registration
With the new Climate regulations in the Netherlands, HelloFresh must report all employee work-related travel data to the Dutch government. The main goal of the regulations is to reduce CO2 emissions. You recently received an email asking for your input. The main question focuses on the type of vehicle and fuel you used the most for work-related travel in 2025. Your input is essential! Please complete the survey by the End of the Year.
Thank you!

Appeltaart blocked W50 for FCIT team
Starting this Monday, and continuing till Friday the 12th, the Appeltaart meeting room will be unavailable and blocked due to planned work by the FCIT team.
They will be configuring and partially testing the entire network environment in preparation for the installation at De Kas.
This includes preparing 2 firewalls, 30 switches, 2 wireless controllers, and 175 access points for deployment.
I have moved meetings to other rooms where possible. However, please be aware that the newly assigned room may be smaller than the original one, so keep this in mind.
