Verkade Zaandam

|
Originally founded in 1886 by Ericus Verkade to make mostly bread and rusk, it expanded to produce cookies, sweets, and, especially, chocolates. They started at the river Zaan. This belongs to a more recent part of the company buildings just opposite of the original complex at the Zaan. It was one of the oldest existing family companies in the Netherlands until its take over in 1990.
