ABOUT KARIKAAS - Celebrating 40 years

In March 1984 Karin and Rients Rypma moved to New Zealand from the Netherlands and established a small factory in Loburn, North Canterbury, because the water was so clean and uncontaminated. (And we are still here.)  The name Karikaas comes from Karin and Rients, and kaas is the Dutch word for cheese.

In January 2004 Karin and Rients sold, and now in 2024, Diana has been at the helm longer than Karin and Rients, and Karikaas is 40 years old. Diana and Alan have raised their family on the Loburn premises. "It's a beautiful place to be, wonderful for the children, staff and customers"

Diana and Alan and the wonderful staff hope that Karikaas will continue for the next 40 years, "Even though none of us will be here to see it!"
