Iconische bedrijven uit het Antwerpen van weleer 

Wie herinnert zich nog de snoepfabriek van Roodthooft in de Lange Leemstraat? Of, veel langer geleden, de koffiebranderij van De Roode Pelikaan in de Broederminstraat? Wie kent iemand die de was altijd ging mangelen bij wasserij Goossens? Of wie heeft vroeger nog op de schoot van Sinterklaas gezeten in het Grand Bazar warenhuis? De geschiedenis van Antwerpen is gevormd en gekleurd door dit soort bedrijven, en zeker ook door de ondernemers erachter. In de verhalen in dit boek leren we hen kennen als slimme zakenmannen en harde werkers, maar vooral ook als geëngageerde burgers en echte gentlemen, die er telkens in slagen om hun bedrijf aan te passen aan de veranderende tijden.

Stadsgids Tanguy Ottomer ging op bezoek bij enkele van zijn favoriete Antwerpse ondernemingen met een rijke geschiedenis en een sterke traditie. Hij ging er praten met de mensen achter het merk: voormalige en huidige werknemers, oudere en jongere generaties van ondernemende families, bestuurders op rust en zaakvoerders van nu. Hun persoonlijke verhalen zijn de ziel van dit boek. Ze worden geïllustreerd met foto’s uit persoonlijke en bedrijfsarchieven, en gekleurd door anekdotes die tot de verbeelding spreken.

Dit derde boek in de reeks 't Stad van Vroeger is een nostalgische en inspirerende ode aan het Antwerpen van weleer en aan de mensen die de Koekenstad gevormd hebben. Een trip down memory lane voor iedereen met een hart voor ondernemerschap en voor ’t Stad.

Ontdek Antwerpse wortels van: ° De Arabierekes van CONFISERIE ROODTHOOFT ° De kousen van VERITAS ° De koffie van DE ROODE PELIKAAN ° Het Bolleke van DE KONINCK ° Het imposante GRAND BAZAR warenhuis ° De hamburgers van QUICK ° De wasserij van de GEBROEDERS GOOSSENS ° Het puddingpoeder van IMPERIAL ° De sauzen van DEVOS-LEMMENS ° De azijn van DE BLAUWE HAND ° DELEN Private Bank ° Het ELIXIR D’ANVERS  van FX de Beukelaer ° De internationale logistieke speler AHLERS ° De papierwaren van AVA.

BeroepsAntwerpenaar Tanguy Ottomer (°1981) heeft zijn bedrijf BeroepsBelg uitgebouwd tot een succesvolle gidsenwerking die verschillende originele stadswandelingen aanbiedt. Zijn eigenzinnige, enthousiaste en spontane aanpak leverde hem veel lof op, onder andere van The New York Times , The Financial Times en CNN, dat Tanguy uitriep tot “one of 7 savviest tour guides in the world”. Hij werd door Toerisme Vlaanderen uitgeroepen tot beste toeristische ambassadeur van Vlaanderen.

In deze reeks schreef Tanguy ook de boeken 't Stad van Vroeger - Verdwenen parels van Antwerpen (uitverkocht), 't Stad van Vroeger 2 - Het bruisende Antwerpen van weleer (uitverkocht) en Winkelen in 't Stad van Vroeger.

Fast results for a very reasonable price.
I saw very fast results on the sun damaged skin on the tops of my thighs (I’m 62 and scorched myself at 16-17). Softer smoother skin on the backs of my arms and my crepey forearms.

I’m absolutely loving this soap! The bars are 2.82 ounce each and 2 come in an order. They are the perfect size and have really worked wonders on my skin. After just a few weeks of use, my complexion looks noticeably brighter and more radiant. The soap has helped fade dark spots and even out my skin tone, leaving me with a smooth and glowing look. I appreciate that it’s SLS-free, paraben-free, and dermatologist-tested — it feels gentle on my skin but still effective. My skin doesn’t feel dry or stripped, just refreshed and rejuvenated. The soap lathers really well, and the scent is light and pleasant. Good thing 2 comes in a pack so I never have to worry about running out. If you’re looking for a way to brighten your skin, fade dark spots, or even out your tone, this soap is a must-try. It’s truly a 5-star product for glowing, healthy skin.

Nice scent, hopefully helps with discoloration but dissolves fast!
I’ve purchased these 4 times for my bikini line, I’m not sure if they make a difference but I like the scent so that’s why I’ve continued to purchase. The down side is that it dissolves very fast! Within 2 weeks your bar is gone..

Didn’t burn me!
UPDATE: I have been using this soap for a few months now. Usually every other day, as that's when I shower. My melisma is still in full swing. Meaning it hasn't help fade it at all. HOWEVER, I haven't had any cystic acne since using it! For that alone, I will keep using it! My skin feels extra clean using it. Also, I tried it on my privates - since that seems to be all the rage lately. I was very dry and scratchy "down there" afterwards. To the point I needed to apply some lotion or something. (I ended up using some Medela nipple lanolin - figuring that was safe for nips and babies to eat.) If you are going to try to lighten your privates, just know you might feel scratchy, too. Original review: Okay, I have only used this once, but I was terrified to use it after seeing other’s reactions. I did a patch test on my inner elbow, let it sit for a few minutes, washed it off and waited 24 hrs before actually using it in my face. So far, I lathered it up and washed my face. I let it sit for about 2 mins, then washed it off. My face didn’t feel clean, so I followed up with my regular cleanser. Tomorrow, I will use my regular cleanser 1st, then use this soap. I can’t tell if it is helping with my melisma yet, but I just wanted to say that I didn’t have my adverse reactions to it. I will update after using it more. The soap smells good & lathers well. Don’t know about the lightening or brightening effect yet.

Effective and Gentle – Koji White Pure Kojic Acid Soap Delivers Visible Skin Brightening Results!
I’ve been using Koji White Pure Kojic Acid Skin Brightening Soap for a few weeks now, and I’m seriously impressed with the results! If you're looking for a gentle yet effective way to exfoliate, brighten, and improve the appearance of your skin, this soap is definitely worth trying. First of all, the soap is formulated with kojic acid, a powerful ingredient known for its ability to brighten skin and reduce dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone. I’ve struggled with some dark spots and blemishes on my face, and after using this soap consistently, I’ve already noticed a noticeable difference. My skin looks brighter, more even-toned, and feels much smoother. The soap itself has a glycerin base, which makes it incredibly gentle on the skin. Despite its exfoliating properties, it doesn’t feel harsh or drying like some other exfoliating soaps I’ve tried. In fact, it leaves my skin feeling moisturized and soft, not tight or stripped. I appreciate that it doesn't have any harsh chemicals, making it suitable for both face and body. The lather is rich and creamy, and a little goes a long way, which makes the bar last for a decent amount of time. I use it in the shower and also apply it to my face as part of my evening skincare routine. It rinses off easily without leaving any residue behind. I also love that this soap is non-irritating, even on my sensitive skin. It doesn’t cause redness, breakouts, or any dryness, which can sometimes happen with other brightening or exfoliating products. It’s perfect for daily use, and I've felt comfortable using it both in the morning and evening. If you're looking for a natural and affordable way to brighten your skin and fade dark spots, I highly recommend Koji White Pure Kojic Acid Skin Brightening Soap. It’s effective, gentle, and delivers visible results without being harsh on your skin. After a few weeks of use, my skin feels healthier, brighter, and more radiant. Definitely a staple in my skincare routine now!
