Paardekooper, founded in 1919, is active in more than 75 countries. The company supplies packaging to companies in different sectors. Previously it was stated on the website that Intratuin, De Bijenkorf, State of Art, Omoda and the Koekfabriek are customers, among others. The webshop is now closed. “The Paardekooper webshop is temporarily packed for technical maintenance,” the website reports Friday.
