Theo de Hoogen
In 1926, De Hoogen started a capsized shop / shop on the Smidspad. In 1946 he moved his caps factory to a former soup kitchen on the Ringbaan-Oost and in 1950 to a building designed by Stan Konings on Ringbaan-Noord 27. De Hoogen mainly produced berets for the army and the United Nations. In 1948 there was a remarkable commission for almost 400,000 party hats and caps on the occasion of the inauguration of Queen Juliana. At the end of the fifties attention shifted to new men's and children's collections. From 1965, De Hoogen came into possession of important foreign collections and the company was able to present its own products internationally. In that year, the business premises were expanded, under the architecture of Jan Remmers. The private company Petten Industrie v / h Th. De Hoogen was discontinued in 1976 and in 1997 the factory was grown beyond recognition.
