A.J.P.
The initials AJP stand for Abraham Josef Polak, an entrepreneur from Groningen. In 1899, Abraham Josef Polak started producing pudding powder, inspired by an English invention. This powder allowed people to easily and quickly make delicious pudding by adding milk to it. In 1903, Polak moved to a building on Hereweg in Groningen to further expand the production of pudding powder. The pudding was marketed under the name A.J.P. After Abraham Polak's passing in 1924, his sons, Moritz and Eduard, took over the company and continued his work.

Until 1975, the A.J.P. pudding factory was part of the coffee and tea department of the tobacco manufacturer Niemeyer.
