At Van Geloven Helmond, also known as Van Lieshout Snackwaren, we’re a team of around 180. In Helmond we’re the frikandel specialist of the Netherlands: we make several types of frikandellen, but also burgers and minced-meat products for the professional market. Around 1,200,000 frikandellen come off our automated lines every day. In Helmond we make over 50 different snacks. That’s more than an average chip shop offers. No two days are the same.

Van Lieshout Snackwaren has been part of Van Geloven since 2002. The brand’s long history is still clearly visible. Even though our production processes are largely automated, we still place great value on craftsmanship. That craftsmanship has already given us many hits, like the famous BikFrik, made to an authentic butcher’s recipe.

There’s a large car park behind the factory, and from there it’s about a five-minute walk to the changing rooms. From Helmond station a bus runs to the factory and it stops almost right outside.
