"More than 100 years of experience and tradition.
- Beka has a rich history dating back to 1899. Starting with Daniel Braun and Jakob Kemmler, they co-founded the Beka brand in Betzingen, Germany and embarked on the manufacture of high quality cookware.
- In the following years BEKA became a well established brand name,in Germany and other countries. Worldwide patents in innovative technologies and overall customer satisfaction contributed to the growing success, resulting in the construction of an even bigger production plant in Tübingen, Germany in the 1960’s.
- To help grow and strengthen the global market position further, a new distribution centre was opened in 1991 in Wittisheim , France serving the whole European market.
- In 2000 the Belgian cookware manufacturer Allinox bought the Beka brand. With headquarters moved to Oostrozebeke, Belgium, a distribution centre in France and a growing number of sales offices, Beka consolidated its position on the European market.
- A few years later, long term plans to pursue an international image lead to the opening of sales and operational offices in the United States and Hong Kong. ..." (http://www.beka-cookware.com/about-beka/history, besucht 27.06.2016)
