Yeast and Spirits Factory

The Yeast and Spirits Factory, originally established by Jacques van Marken, evolved into a significant entity known as Gist-Brocades. This transformation marked an important era in the company's history, contributing to its influence in the industry.

In 1998, a pivotal event occurred when Gist-Brocades was acquired by DSM, a move that integrated the company's operations into a larger conglomerate, enhancing its capabilities and market reach.
