At Boska, everything is about enjoying together. Of good food, good company and good design. The Dutch family business has been bringing craftsmanship to the kitchen table since 1896. This month, Boska unpacks with stylish, sustainable products that are perfect for the fall and holiday season. TICA’s editors spoke with Maurijn Legein, CEO and shareholder of Boska, about the power of sharing, designing with a mission and why TICA is a logical place for those who want innovative and conscious shopping.

The story of Boska begins in 1896, when the founder made the first cheese slicer as a blacksmith in Bodegraven. Four generations later, Boska has become an expert in tools for a complete food experience.
“We don’t make gadgets,” says Maurijn. “Everything has to be right: it has to look good, feel good and, above all, it has to last a long time.”
At Boska, sustainability is not an add-on, but the foundation. As a B Corp, the brand works with FSC-certified wood, actively reduces packaging materials and is committed to products that will last for years. “We design for people who make conscious choices. Hospitality entrepreneurs, concept stores, gift stores, all are looking for products that do more than look nice. That tell stories.”
For Boska, TICA is the place to meet entrepreneurs who buy consciously and creatively. Members are looking for products with character and style, exactly what Boska stands for.
