It started as a traditional bakery in the city center of Oldenzaal.
Our DNA
At Pré Pain, we bake delicious bake-off bread daily to provide end-users with the opportunity to offer the freshest bread experience: freshly baked and delightfully crispy. We do this with great craftsmanship and modern production processes. We believe that nothing surpasses freshly baked crispy bread, resulting in small moments of happiness for the consumer.
Tasteful innovations
The assortment is recognized for more flavor, authentic appearance, shape, and extended freshness.
Roasted Seeds
The roasted seeds give the bread a rustic and traditional look. You can see it, smell it and taste it. Roasting also improves nutritional values.
Sour dough
Sourdough bread gets more flavor, a specific structure and aroma through natural fermentation and a longer rising time. It also provides improved nutritional values.
Next Generation
Authentic products with a wonderfully thin, crispy crust and a light crumb. And also fresh for longer.
