Company Managed by Relative of Dutch ‘Fat King’ Was Raided in Biofuel Fraud Investigation

Six years after the conviction of biodiesel fraudster Cornelis “Cees” Bunschoten, Rotterdam police raided Gerbuvet B.V. in November 2024 as part of a broader investigation into alleged million-euro fraud involving biodiesel raw materials; reporters linked the Gerbuvet site and governance to members of the Bunschoten family, noted potential mislabeling of cheaper oils as higher-value waste-based biofuels, and recorded related asset seizures and an ongoing probe by Dutch authorities.
