Koeckebackers: biscuits that change lives
11 August 2026 · 4 min read
A social enterprise and B Corp where 91% of participants move into a permanent job within a year.
'This biscuit changes lives' is written large on their site. That sounds like a slogan, but at Koeckebackers it's simply the company description.
In the bakery, people who are distant from the job market get a paid position: working in a team, Dutch language lessons and personal development. Not day-care, but a route to real work.
And that route works: according to the bakery, 91% move into a permanent job elsewhere within a year. That makes every biscuit literally someone's fresh start.
It's also simply a tasty biscuit, baked according to trusted Dutch recipes. Craft and impact don't have to rule each other out.
Want a package that goes beyond tasty? Then this is the product that makes that easiest to explain to your team.
