I have a conflict of interest regarding this subject, so I will not edit the article directly any further. I would like to request a neutral update based on recent independent coverage.
A possible approach would be:
- updating the short description from “Belgian television producer” to “Belgian entrepreneur and ice-cream producer”;
- adding a brief, neutrally worded note that Philippe Bogaert is the founder of Ralph & Roxy's;
- briefly mentioning the recent coverage of the Brussels Airlines partnership;
- keeping older material concise, for example by only noting that he is the author of Exit Permit! (2011).
Possible wording:
Philippe Bogaert (born 1971) is a Belgian entrepreneur and ice-cream producer. He is the founder of Ralph & Roxy's, a Belgian artisanal ice-cream brand based in Walloon Brabant. In 2026, the company received wider media attention after Brussels Airlines introduced Ralph & Roxy's ice cream on its long-haul flights.
Career
Bogaert founded Ralph & Roxy's, an artisanal ice-cream company based in Nodebais, in Walloon Brabant. Belgian media described the business as a small-scale venture that developed into a professional brand.
In April 2026, Brussels Airlines announced that Ralph & Roxy's ice cream would be served on its long-haul flights. Belgian and aviation-sector media subsequently reported on the partnership.
He is also the author of Exit Permit! (2011).
