2011. Verkade 125 years
In 2011, the 125th anniversary was celebrated in a grand manner with, among other things, major national consumer campaigns, a party at the Beursplein in Amsterdam and festivities for relations, neighbours and (former) staff in Zaandam.

Verkade was founded on May 2, 1886. Then Ericus Gerhardus Verkade opened his steam, bread and rusk factory “De Ruyter”. The name “De Ruyter” was chosen with a bow to the past; the first flour mill in West Zaandam bore that name. The products of the first hour were; bread, rusk, honey gingerbread and Langetjes, later the tea lights were added. “De Ruyter” is still recognizable in the logo of the Verkade brand. Over time, Verkade switched to making cookies and chocolate.
