"The farmer ploughs with a steady hand. And draws furrows in the land." "The ground is ploughed, ready and neat. Now the farmer sows the seed." "The ears of grain become heavy and grand. Then comes the harvest, the work at hand." "The sheaves are dried on the grassy floor. The grain is then put into sacks, no more." "The miller, Coen van Geel, is his name. He grinds the grain to beautiful flour, his fame." "The dough is prepared with utmost care. Pure craftsmanship, that's a fact so rare." "With herbs, honey, and sugar refined, gingerbread becomes a delightful find." "Here in the corner shop, it is seen. Fresh gingerbread, proudly pristine."

Koninklijke Peijnenburg B.V., known for the beloved brand names Peijnenburg and Wieger Ketellapper, is a leading producer of gingerbread. With locations in Geldrop and Sintjohannesga, this company has a rich history. In 1983, the company received the prestigious "Koninklijk" (Royal) designation.

The origin of this company dates back to 1883 when Harry Peijnenburg opened a bakery in Geldrop. Gradually, the business grew, and in 1915, a split occurred. Son Harry took over the bread and pastry, while son Johan (nicknamed "Mijnheer Han") specialized in cookies and confectionery. In 1917, the cookie factory was established under the name De Bijenkorf. With 22 employees, a new location was occupied in 1920, where the company steadily grew. In 1952, the company was converted into a public limited company, and in 1954, a new factory was put into use, still located in the heart of Geldrop.

Peijnenburg is known for its artisanal quality and craftsmanship, which has been passed down through generations. Peijnenburg gingerbread has become an iconic product and is beloved by many.
