First, I would like to thank Mr. Herman Missine for founding CD 30 years ago. It took vision, determination, and relentless effort—along with a touch of good fortune—to bring CD from its humble beginnings to where it is today. Think about it: what are the chances of knocking unexpectedly on a door thousands of kilometres away, convincing someone to take a chance on us—and then turning that chance into 10, 20, or even 30 years of fruitful partnership?

Over time, our distributors made significant accomplishments. We want to express our gratitude with a special award. For this, we looked at your lifetime accomplishments in terms of purchases up to 2025. We want to recognize those whose commitment has stood out over the years.

Having commemorated our past, it is fitting to share our thoughts about our future.

I am looking forward to growing CD with our engaged and motivated team. Once we are out of the regulatory paperwork swamp that the European Union created, we will accelerate the pace of innovations and launch more products. Our focus remains on selling 100 million tests in 2030.

Thank you for being part of this journey.

We are looking forward to the next chapter of success together.

Kind regards,

Thomas
