History of expertise
Johann Jacobs and Egbert Douwes didn't know where their journeys would lead them. They just believed that everyone deserved the coffee they love. And that's what we still stand for today.
After years apart, Jacobs and Douwe Egberts combined strength and became Jacobs Douwe Egberts (JDE). Today JDE is the world's leading pure-play coffee company, headquartered in The Netherlands. A team of more than 12,000 coffee champions unite to deliver brands in more than 80 countries around the world.
