Heebink was founded in 1970 by Mr. Jan Heebink and together with his wife Annie Heebink they made the company what it is today. They conquered many milestones together, and over more than FIVE decades they have built a renowned and respected Company, an achievement of unprecedented magnitude.

Jan Heebink passed away 6th January 2014 at the age of 65, after he had been seriously ill for quite some time. All Heebink employees were deeply saddened by his death.

Today, Mrs. Annie Heebink is still often present at the Heebink offices, still working on the invoicing of quite a few of our larger customers, and of course as a support for her son and our current CEO Cees Heebink.
