Historical Background:
Kanis & Gunnink has a rich history dating back to 1880 when Hendrik Kanis opened his shop in oriental goods. The collaboration with Frans Gunnink and the subsequent meeting with South African President Paul Krüger laid the foundation for the brand’s name and success. Over the years, Kanis & Gunnink grew into a well-known Dutch coffee brand, partly due to their collectable items, such as this unique coffee tin.
In 1969, the company was taken over by Douwe Egberts, but the retention of the city coat of arms of Kampen on the packaging is a testament to Kanis & Gunnink's enduring heritage. Although the factory in Kampen closed in 2001, the brand name lives on in the memories of many.
