Op 1 april 2016 stond Nijhuis Consultancy & Services 25 jaar ingeschreven bij de Kamer van Koophandel, reden voor een feestelijke dag met receptie en diner, voorafgegaan door een proeverij waarover o.a. werd gezegd: ” Dit is de best georganiseerde proeverij ooit!”- De nieuwe standaard!- Niet te overtreffen! – Nog nooit zo’n perfect georganiseerde proeverij meegemaakt!”

Uitgebreide fotoreportages zijn o.a. te vinden op de Facebookpagina:
