Marijn Bos · Email marketing specialist ·

We have great news: mailmeisters has been named one of the winners of the FD Gazellen 2025. This award is presented every year by Het Financieele Dagblad to the fastest-growing, financially healthy companies in the Netherlands. For us, this recognition confirms our ambition, our approach and what we have already achieved together with our clients. But what does it really mean to be an FD Gazelle?

What is the FD Gazellen Award?

The FD Gazellen Award is a prestigious business award from Het Financieele Dagblad. Every year it recognises companies that are growing exceptionally fast, and doing so in a healthy, profitable way. Only companies that show at least 20% revenue growth per year, are financially healthy and make a profit are eligible.

So this award is more than just proof of rapid growth: it is recognition of sustainable entrepreneurship. In 2025, mailmeisters is one of the Gazelles in the East region, in the ‘small’ category. And we are enormously proud of that.

Our growth, your advantage

Being one of the fastest-growing companies in the Netherlands says something about how we work. Not only internally, but above all in how we work with our clients. Our growth is the result of partnerships in which we go further than just building emails.

We help organisations set up their marketing more smartly, make better use of customer data and achieve real results. We grow together. With a sharp strategy, creative bespoke work and technical depth, we create email marketing that works, and keeps on working.

Why mailmeisters received this award

This recognition did not come out of nowhere. Behind the scenes, we have done a great deal of building over the past few years. We professionalised our services, expanded our team with specialists, and sharpened our positioning.

What do clients notice? A partner that thinks along with them, looks ahead and makes sure everything is right, from segmentation and content to integrations and results.

Our route to 2026 and beyond

We are proud of where we stand today, but our ambitions go further. In 2026 we want not only to keep growing, but also to become smarter, more international and more innovative.

We are investing in AI to take personalisation and automation to a new level. We are building new services around data and CDP, and further expanding our European activities with multilingual campaigns and international e-commerce strategies. Everything we do is about progress, for us and for our clients.

Growth also means we keep improving our internal processes. By working smarter, we create more room for creativity, strategy and personal attention. Because however big we get: every client always comes first with us.

“Our ambition? To help every client move forward with smart, scalable email marketing.”

Jan den Bakker — Founder
