Douwe Egberts coffee capsules

Douwe Egberts is a historic Dutch brand with roots dating back to 1753 in Joure, Friesland. Originally founded by Egbert Douwes, the company shifted from a general grocery store to specializing in coffee and tea under the leadership of his son, Douwe Egberts. Over centuries, it became a cornerstone of Dutch coffee culture.

Today, the brand is part of JDE Peet's, a global coffee powerhouse. While the brand remains deeply tied to its Dutch heritage, its products are distributed worldwide. In the Netherlands, it is managed by Jacobs Douwe Egberts B.V., with major manufacturing facilities in cities like Utrecht and Joure to supply both the local and international European markets.
