About Delmo
"Our story is built on passion, trust, and the desire to create something lasting together.”
In 1989, Christophe Delmotte started a sharpening workshop for private customers. Very quickly, meat processing companies requested his services to sharpen their knives. This led to an expansion of the machine park and the completion of various training programs to master the skills of the trade.
His efforts paid off, and in 1995 he founded the company DELMO SPRL together with his wife Hilde Deklerck. To better serve their customers, who were spread across Flanders, they moved in 1998 to a more central location in Wondelgem (Ghent).
The company continued to grow, not only in sharpening services but also in offering a wider range of products. The premises in Wondelgem became too small, and in July 2013 Delmo moved to a new, larger facility and changed its name to Delmo New.
A new wind is blowing through the company! Since July 2021, the second generation has been at the helm of Delmo. Sylvie Delmotte and Jonas Leplae have taken over the reins and continue the work with the same passion and dedication.
They are writing a new chapter in the company’s history while maintaining the solid foundation.
