Workplace
At expo-mate, we have a few secret ingredients for a happy and healthy working environment:
Our fish, they don’t just swim in their bowl; they bring a bit of extra life and fun to our office. But who takes care of these swimming colleagues? Mostly Ron and Lotte, sometimes
Jan or Guus, and very occasionally Theo…
They are the dedicated caretakers of our aquatic friends. Regularly, they dive into the world of the fishbowl, armed with a net and a cleaning brush.
So, the next time you walk past the fish tank and catch a glimpse of our colorful underwater community, know that we’re the ones taking care of it.
We’re not only making our office but also the lives of our fish a little more beautiful.
Together, we create a vibrant, lively work environment, where even the fish know they are part of our amazing team!
It’s the perfect way to make our team even stronger
Welcome to the world of darts
At expo-mate, we strongly believe in the power of teamwork and fun in the workplace. Dart games are not only a great way to get to know your colleagues better, but also to relax, have fun, and achieve goals together – quite literally, as the target is the bullseye!
Our weekly dart sessions bring us together for some friendly competition. It’s an opportunity to escape the work pressure and get absorbed in aiming for that triple 20. So, grab a dart, aim at that board, and let’s have fun and celebrate successes together, both on and off the workplace.
