Congratulations to Koolschijn Bouwmaterialen

16 April 2020

In November 2019, we welcomed Koolschijn Bouwmaterialen as part of De Hoop Group. We are honoured to announce their centenary. According to legend, 14 April 2020 marked the one hundredth anniversary of the foundation being laid for Koolschijn Bouwmaterialen. In these difficult times, particularly, this is a ray of hope to cherish.

Koolschijn Bouwmaterialen was founded in 1920. Just like De Hoop Terneuzen, it was a family company, handed down from father to son. In the past one hundred years Koolschijn has grown to become a modern, customer-orientated building materials company with two showrooms. Service, expertise and customer-centricity are key concepts for Koolschijn, and they have been for one hundred years now.

Professional construction companies and do-it-yourselfers have found their way to Koolschijn for years, to pick up their required building materials or have them delivered. And their earliest customers remain loyal today.

Having just turned 100, Koolschijn is in good company at De Hoop Terneuzen. A number of other companies have reached that landmark anniversary before them, such as Pelt & Hooykaas, Logus Bergen op Zoom, Fassaert Beton and De Hoop Terneuzen itself. It makes us proud to have a new 100-year-old company in our midst. That, in itself, is worth celebrating! De Hoop Terneuzen congratulates all employees of Koolschijn.

All 100-year-old companies were traditionally family companies, which deliver added value (in the best meaning of the word) to the customer, thus building lasting relationships. This is a strong foundation that gives us confidence in the future.
