I’m a true Spakenburger and love working hard. I enjoy passing this mentality on to my colleagues. We have to do it together! It’s really convenient for me that my work is close to home, right here in the same village.

I’ve been working at De Graaf Bakeries for ten years and still enjoy it every day. Every day is different and never boring. In our Order Support team, there’s a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We even meet up outside of work now and then for a drink or a game night!

I’m a Team Leader in the Freezer Warehouse and have been working at De Graaf Bakeries for 24 years. I go to work with pleasure every day and really enjoy helping my colleagues, from the drivers to the Order Support team!

Stephan

My name is Stephan and I’ve been working as a baker at De Graaf Bakeries in Spakenburg for over 15 years. I have to say, I really enjoy my job. The great thing about it is that no two days are the same. Every day, I work on something new and contribute to making a variety of products. What makes it even better is the friendly atmosphere and my fantastic colleagues. So, if you see me walking around with a smile on my face, now you know why. Working at De Graaf Bakeries is simply great!

Erwin

When De Graaf Bakeries approached me for the position of Team Leader in the Technical Service, I had already received several other offers and had decided to move to another company. However, I was convinced to come in for an interview. After the introductory meeting, I was given a tour, and what I saw really appealed to me. I thought, “It’s much better here! A friendly atmosphere and great products.”

Bram

The introduction day at de Graaf Bakeries was an amazing experience! I got the chance to explore all aspects of the company, from production to quality control. The highlight was, of course, baking and tasting a delicious filled cookie myself. A fun and flavorful day I’ll never forget!
