Brinkers Food was founded by Bernardus in 1889 and was originally a small trading company, specialised in the distribution of ... margarine, in those days a new product used as a replacement for the much more expensive butter. Shortly after the second world war, one of Brinkers’ sons started a new venture introducing a brand new product: a chilled chocolate butter, Choba. This product was basically the first chocolate spread ever on the market and even today, Choba is still a very well-known product on the Dutch market. Later on, already in the early sixties, Choba was followed by Nusco, the now classic hazelnut chocolate spread. For the past 25 years, the company is managed by the fourth generation Brinkers: a highly experienced management team, together with a very committed and loyal work-force, ready to face all the new challenges the food industry will experience in the years to follow. Brinkers' goal is very clear: to further build a successful family-business, based on flexibility, quality, sustainability and a no-nonsense management style. Brinkers has over the years successfully developed brands in every segment of the international marketplace: Organic: La Vida Vegan, La Vida Vegan PROTEIN, So Vegan So Fine, So Vegan So Fine PROTEIN, Chocolate Rhapsody, It’s My Life, Nuscobio, Nuscarobe Conventional: Chocolate Symphony, Nusco, Nusco PROTEIN, Nusco Palm oil-free & Vegan, Nusica, Nusica PROTEIN, BubbleChoq, Twist Apart from being a successful producer of leading brands, Brinkers is considered to be one of Europe’s leading suppliers of a wide range of first class chocolate spreads under private label.
