easyHotel Benelux / DanZep Hotels

Between 1999 and 2007 we have been involved in real estate development with Dutch Development B.V. Out of that experience and our friendship with UK entrepreneur Dan Metcalfe came an opportunity (in 2007) to obtain the master franchise license for the easyHotel concept for the Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands, and Luxembourg) area. DanZep Hotels was founded in 2010 has opened 8 easyHotels (Amsterdam 2, The Hague 2, Rotterdam, Brussel, Zaandam and Maastricht) to date.

DanZep / easyHotel Benelux has been re-named to Xcentric-Hotels. The group is hugely succesful.

In June 2007 EBI Food Safety B.V. received full FDA approval for its Listex product. The name was changed to Micreos at the end of 2010 to underline our growing ambition in the emerging field of bacteriophage applications, including the market for  Human Health products. Micreos is now the global leader in this field. In oktober 2012 we launched gladskin.com, the worlds first endolysine based consumer product targetting Staph aureus.
