Middenfabriek

The Middenfabriek, built in 1863, is the heart of SugarFactory. As soon as you cross the threshold, you’ll see why. Immediately upon entering you will get a view of the impressive atrium with no fewer than three storeys. Authentic details from the former sugar factory are everywhere you look: boilers, pillars, machinery.

At 6,000 square metres, the Middenfabriek is SugarFactory’ biggest event space, ideal for large conferences. For example it can accommodate a plenary session, workshop and networking areas. The Middenfabriek connects to the Pulppersloods and Binnenstraat event spaces, so you can hold different parts of your conference in different locations.

Companies including Funda and Beyond Banking have held highly successful conferences at SugarFactory.

History

SugarFactory was the Netherlands’ oldest sugar factory, operating from 1863 to 1992 and owned by CSM Suiker. The air was full of steam, the din of cranes and other machinery, and the smell of sugarbeet.

Since 2002, it has been undergoing redevelopment by the Cobraspen Group, transforming it into a unique event location while keeping the factory itself fully intact. It incorporates all the advanced technology you’d expect from a modern event venue, but this has been done subtly and with respect for the factory’s character.

The unique décor is testimony to the former sugar factory’s industrial grandeur, and it is still making history with many memorable events.
