Nutcrackers

Nutcrackers

Our Nutcrackers are our V.I.P. friends and partners, that have outed themselves as convinced Nut-Fans. To help them in their strenuous sporting activities they place all their bets on nuts, because they know that nuts and kernels are an important part of a nutritious diet, giving them an important energy boost.

The Nutcrackers are TV-Stars, Professional Athletes, and other important personalities that are on the way with the Flag of the Squirrel – carrying our Philosophy throughout their travels around the World.

Regardless if it’s during the filming of a new movie, during a sporting competition, or elsewhere, our Nutcrackers always have a delicious portion of KERNenergie with them to help them along the way. Travel along and follow them on their exciting adventures around the globe!
