Mr. Pieter Deiters together with his wife Mariette and Mrs. Croonen  had a lunch-meeting with 8 former Berghaus  employees last November 27  in Restaurant Bellevue in Blaricum.
 
The couple was on a visit from Switzerland where they now reside.







 
At the meeting, Mr. Deiters gave everyone a signed copy of his book, “ Rusland aangekleed Rusland uitgekleed (30 jaar werken in Rusland voor Beghaus-groep) “
He gave a parting words , , “ ….. thanks to each and everyone and happy to see you all, successful and well.”
 
The meeting with the group came about purely by chance. It was sometime in May 2010 when Mr. Deiters , while surfing the internet,  came across Munting Nayon website and its column of BERGHAUS GIRLS.
 
On May 18, 2010, he sent an email message to MN’s editor Eddie Flores stating,
“ ….  I am however often in Holland and would like to arrange a meeting with you and the people behind this wonderfull idea of keeping the Berghaus spirit alive….”
The email message was forwarded to Curie Arts-Sawit, a former Berghaus employee now residing in the Netherlands.
 
In 1972, Mr Deiters  was appointed by his father Ben Deiters as Director of Berghaus Company  until it was sold to the British group Coats Vyella in 1993. He stayed  with the group as president until 1999.
 
At present, Mr. Deiters  is still active in the boards of several garment and textile companies in the Netherlands ,USA and Switzerland.
