Who we are

Johan Kamphuis
Managing director

My passion and drive originate from my strong belief that health and wellbeing can be supported with sustainable, eco-friendly and natural ingredients. I have over 35 years of experience in the nutritional ingredients market, including studying the clinical benefits of plant-based sources. With technological innovations we can secure, get access to and improve different natural sources, such as plant-based proteins like seaweed and algae.

I am honored to offer my support and knowhow to HealthyProteins B.V. and work together to become the future solution provider of unique plant-based proteins. We do this by creating plant-based protein concepts for different health benefits and making them available for everyday use. Protein consumption is essential in our diet; from baby formula to elderly nutrition. By offering HealthyProteins B.V. plant-based products we contribute to a better health for consumers and a sustainable solution for the growing demand of protein rich products.

Please join us on this journey and feel free to contact us. We will be more than happy to serve you with the best solutions for your needs.


Geannys Gonzalez
founder/commercial director

Let’s start with one of my passions, music, the common thread in my life story. I was born in Cuba, land of music by excellence and where I graduated from Music College in Havana.
Back then, I didn’t know that many years later I would find out that music was going to be more than just playing and dancing: it was to play a role and to become the base of my professional life in the protein industry. For me music connects, invites, opens up creativity, organic growth, emotions, and team work.

In the late 90s, I moved to Holland and 5 years later I would meet Arnauld on my path, he invited me for a job interview to join AVH. In the corner of his office I saw his drumkit. Even before we started, we already shared a passion. It was the beginning of a friendship between two men and their families. In those early years of the company we showed, as true pioneers, the world that goat not only made good cheeses in France, but also provided solutions for infant nutrition or family protein products. Especially for those with digestion problems.

Now HealthyProteins brings us back together again! And it is my desire to start on this new voyage with a much bigger footprint, for people, for nature; for our world. Together with good vibes, my feel for rhythm and with great arguments to make a difference again, I want to set a good example for my children.


Daniëlle de Wit
logistics co-ordinator

My name is Daniëlle de Wit and I have been working as a logistics coordinator at HealthyProteins B.V. since February 1st, 2021.

I am a proud mother of 2 teenage boys (16 and 19) and I have been living with the love of my life, Peter, since 4 years now.
When I am off, I’d like to spend that time with Peter, and with my family and friends. Shopping, for instance, or going to the movies, having a drink or eating out are among my favourite things.
I also love going to music festivals: from Anouk to Hazes, my taste of music is very diverse. Apart from that I exercise and try to hike as often as I can.

Before starting to work for HealthyProteins, I worked at Bunge Loders Croklaan B.V. (www.bunge.com), a producer of sustainable plant-based specialty oils and fats, for almost 25 years. There I learned a lot about the logistics of international sea and road transport (documents/customer service/shipping). By now, I know all the ins and outs and that comes in quite handy in this challenging new job.

Together with Geannys and Johan I would like to take Healthy Proteins to a next level in this fast growing niche of healthy plant-based proteins.
Although I am relatively unfamiliar with a plant-based diet myself, I truly believe that this will become the standard diet over time. Inspired, I am experimenting with plant-based dairy and cheese products and even ordered vegan cakes for my birthday 😊.
