Amarant was founded in 1924 by Jan and Anna Pater. It started small with a self-built bakery in their farmhouse and a dog cart used to deliver the bread. After World War II, they baked traditional white bread for the whole village.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/amarantacademy.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/overname-Cor-1955.jpg” alt=”acquisition son Cor 1955″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” border_radii=”on|10px|10px|10px|10px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”16px” header_2_font=”|700|||||||” header_2_font_size=”40px” custom_margin=”||20px||false|false” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
Their son Cor takes over the bakery with his wife Tinie, introducing countless new developments: a new house with a new shop, the acquisition of the Hoorn Bread Factory, the renovation of the bakery in Avenhorn and partnerships with supermarkets and grocery stores.
