At Van Geloven Tilburg, historically known as Ad van Geloven, about 250 people work in our factory. Our factory in Tilburg is the world’s largest kroketten factory.

Besides our ragout products (kroketten and bitterballen), we also produce satay, spring rolls and chicken products in Tilburg. Did you know we fold our spring rolls by hand? We also pack our mini snack mixes, like Mora’s Funmix, and the larger boxes for the hospitality sector in Tilburg. This is where our mini snack favourites from different factories come together.

Van Geloven has a long history in Tilburg that goes back to the early 1960s. Back then we started with the production of soups and ragout. In 1969 the first kroketten rolled off the production line.

Started as a family business, those values are still visible today. We have an informal culture. Our CEO is approachable; his door is open to everyone.

We put our employees at the centre. We also have an active staff association.
