Jamin is a retail chain of confectionery sellers, as well as a former confectionery and ice cream factory.
In 1870 Cornelis Jamin (1850-1907) opened a chocolate shop in Rotterdam. The business went well and he was able to expand. In 1880 he started confectionery factories on Rodezand and Crooswijksekade, and in 1883 the first Jamin store opened. When Cornelis Jamin died in 1907, there were 50 Jamin stores in and around Rotterdam.
Until bankruptcy in 1985, the range included candy, confectionery, nougat, biscuit, licorice, chocolate, packaged ice cream and cream pudding. Everything was manufactured, transported and sold in-house in-house.
