Peijnenburg
More than 130 years ago, in the year 1883, baker Harry Peijnenburg started his bakery and shop in the center of Geldrop. Like every baker, he worked on rusks, bread, biscuits and pastries in the early morning hours. He and his wife sold the freshly baked goods in their store during the day. and those who could not visit that shop could have their fresh home delivered.
Koninklijke Peijnenburg B.V. is a producer of gingerbread under the brand names Peijnenburg and Wieger Ketellapper. The company has offices in Geldrop and Sintjohannesga. In 1983 the company received the designation Royal.
The company's origins can be traced back to 1883, when Harry Peijnenburg owned a bakery in Geldrop. The gradually growing company was split in 1915, with son Harry taking over the bread and pastries, and son Johan (Mr Han) specializing in cakes and pastries. In 1917, the biscuit factory was founded under the name De Bijenkorf. In 1920, 22 people worked there. The company moved to its current location and expanded significantly. In 1952 it was converted into a Limited Liability Company. A new factory was opened in 1954, still in the center of Geldrop.
