There are moments in the pigeon sport that feel historic and today is one of them. With pride I welcome Gerard and Katiuska Schalkwijk as VIP Partners of PigeonBoss.com. Two passionate and enthusiastic fanciers who embody everything that makes this sport great.
From Travipharma to a New Era in Racing Pigeons
Everyone in the sport knows the name Travipharma, a brand that became synonymous with quality and innovation in pigeon healthcare. It was Gerard and Katiuska who once built this success story and later sold it, marking the end of one era and the beginning of another. Behind it all stood Gerard & Katiuska Schalkwijk, a pair with vision, entrepreneurship and unstoppable drive. After his grand total auction last year, Gerard has shifted his focus. Today he dedicates more and more energy to the international One Loft Races, the global stage where the very best Racing Pigeons compete.
Fresh Ideas That Will Shape the Future
What makes Gerard and Katiuska unique is not just their passion but their forward thinking approach. Gerard is bursting with new ideas and these concepts will help push the pigeon sport into a brighter future. Innovation, knowledge and inspiration are what you can expect from Schalkwijk Pigeons.
