About

Korys is the investment company of the Colruyt family. In four generations, this family developed the Colruyt Group of the same name into a successful international retail group. Korys was founded in 2012 as a 'family office'. Korys manages the patrimony of the Colruyt family. Moreover, we promote the belief in values-driven entrepreneurship by investing in people and companies. Because an attractive return is perfectly compatible with a positive contribution to people, the environment and society.Investing is korys' core task. This basic assignment consists of risk-conscious asset management and active participations in companies, projects and funds.But Korys strives for added value that goes beyond mere profit. For us, investing also means inspiring and engaging. The 3P philosophy (People, Planet, Profit) is therefore the cornerstone of our investment strategy: we contribute to sustainable projects and companies in a humane way.Creating such sustainable added value takes time. That's why we invest in the long term, driven by our holistic view, our craftsmanship and our dedication: Craftsmanship: experienced craftsmanship is about thoroughness, professionalism, but also about simplicity and efficiency.Dedication: we are committed to people and projects that we are convinced make a difference.Holistic view: we also take a closer look at less measurable criteria such as impact on people and the environment, corporate culture, innovative power, growth potential for people and teams, well-being,...We invest tocreate sustainable addedvalue through our holistic view, our craftsmanship and our dedicationKorys' brand values are a reference point for our behaviour: EngagementVanuit een duurzame relatie – waarin we op elkaar kunnen rekenen – gaan wij er voluit voor.
