Crust / Broodje Ben Zwolle

Broodje Ben Zwolle is publicly listed at Assendorperstraat 69 in Zwolle. The location is in Assendorp and is associated with takeaway and delivery in public listings. The name Crust appears in the provided research, but public sources do not confirm it as a public alternative name for the Zwolle location. Therefore, the factual basis for this profile rests on Broodje Ben Zwolle.

Available data places the start of the business in June and July 2021. Drimble lists a founding date of June 18, 2021, and a KvK number. An Instagram post stated that the location would open on Thursday, July 1, 2021, at 10:00 AM. Stagemarkt names Michel Westerink as the contact person. A public LinkedIn result links him to Broodje Ben Zwolle as owner and entrepreneur since June 2021.

The concept aligns with the broader Broodje Ben formula. This formula focuses on baked rolls with daily toppings in meat, fish, vegetarian, and vegan categories. The general formula mentions more than fifty types of toppings. For the Zwolle branch, the location, the takeaway and delivery model, and the menu structure are the most publicly visible aspects.

For coffee lovers, what is notably absent from public records is particularly striking. The provided research lists Cook & Boon as the roaster. However, no public source has been found that confirms a direct relationship between Cook & Boon and Broodje Ben Zwolle or Crust. As a result, this connection cannot be described as established fact.

Cook & Boon publicly describes itself as a coffee roaster from Breda. The company supplies coffee to the hospitality industry, businesses, and consumers. Paul and Frank Merkus are also publicly named as the founders of Cook & Boon. This information tells us something about the roaster itself, but not about a documented supply to the Zwolle roll shop.

The public online menu of Broodje Ben Zwolle includes roll categories and a beverage category. However, no coffee drinks or brewing methods were found in the visible menu. Specific preparations, such as espresso, filter coffee, or other coffee variants, are also not documented in the provided material. Therefore, an assessment of the coffee line is not possible based on these sources.

Broodje Ben Zwolle functions primarily as a roll shop with takeaway and delivery functions in the available data. Hapsalons lists the business as a roll company for takeaway and delivery in Assendorp-west. Delivery areas within Zwolle postal codes are also mentioned. Thuisbezorgd lists the same street location in Zwolle.

The business is also visible on multiple public platforms. In addition to its own page, listings appear on Thuisbezorgd, Hapsalons, RestaurantGuru, Stagemarkt, Facebook, and Instagram. RestaurantGuru places the business at Assendorperstraat 69 and aggregates review data from Google and Tripadvisor. The research mentions no editorial food publications, prices, or coffee-specific recognition.

No public data was found regarding workshops, tastings, exhibitions, or coffee events at Broodje Ben Zwolle or Crust. However, Stagemarkt lists the Zwolle branch as a recognized training company. This listing pertains to retail and logistics training programs, with corresponding recognition dates for the mentioned qualifications.

The general Broodje Ben website mentions activities such as festivals, introductory days, online events, weddings, and parties. However, the provided research does not establish a specific link between these activities and the Zwolle branch. Therefore, this can only be viewed as information about the broader formula, not as a local program for Broodje Ben Zwolle.

No bar-specific data was found for the Zwolle location regarding the sustainability, procurement, or origin of coffee. The menu lists vegetarian and vegan categories but does not attach any sustainability claims to them. Additionally, no local supplier relationships or specific sourcing practices have been publicly documented.

Cook & Boon publishes its own sustainability information regarding the roastery. This includes, among other things, solar panels, LED lighting, electric warehouse equipment, and an energy-saving recirculation system in the coffee roaster. Since a direct relationship with Broodje Ben Zwolle has not been publicly confirmed, this information cannot be attributed to the Zwolle establishment.

The available picture of Broodje Ben Zwolle is that of a sandwich shop in Assendorp, launched in 2021 and linked to takeaway and delivery services. Public data shows a clear business listing, a menu structure with various sandwich categories, and a role as a training company. Information regarding the coffee aspect remains limited. No confirmed coffee suppliers, brewing methods, coffee drinks, or coffee-specific recognitions have been publicly documented in the provided research.
