Haj\u00e9: a real polder pioneer<\/h2>\n

Car drivers in the summer of 1986 on the highway A6 were the first to make a pitstop at the first roadside restaurant<\/a> of the Netherlands. It was cozy and homey inside the restaurant. A young mother served a cup of coffee with cane sugar on the terrace, while the guests enjoy the wonderful view of the nature reserve. With the \u2018Oostvaardersplassen\u2019 in the backyard, young family De Jager had a beautiful location to start a catering industry. With father Haj\u00e9 de Jager in the kitchen and his wife Feikje as hostess for arriving travelers. With grandpa behind the counter and the baby in its bouncer, a company was born.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_color=”#f2f2f2″ scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″][vc_column column_padding=”padding-10-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n

Napkin<\/h2>\n

Thierry de Jager, board member of the Haj\u00e9 Shops, Hotels and restaurants tells us more about how it all started with his parents. He tells how the idea of a restaurant and hotel chain was formed on the back of a napkin. His parents Haj\u00e9 and Feikje de Jager had dinner with their friends Otto and Phia in Amsterdam. They spoke about their dreams to start a restaurant. Haj\u00e9 made a sketch of his ideas on a napkin. Those ideas became reality when he an his wife drove through the polder and did not encounter any place to eat or rest. This was the moment they made the choice to take a leap of faith and start as real polder pioneers by opening restaurant Haj\u00e9 de Lepelaar<\/a>. After the restaurant\u2019s opening Phia gave family De Jager a scrapbook with photos of the construction and the napkin itself. The building and the napkin were miraculously similar.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ background_image=”448″ column_shadow=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”]

De Aalscholver<\/h2>\n

In 1989 a second restaurant opened across the A6: Haj\u00e9 de Aalscholver. \u201cDuring those days the road was almost always empty and my father could easily walk across to fetch a carton of milk.\u2019\u2019 Thierry says while smiling. \u2018\u2019If we were out of bread, my father would call the postman to buy us 2 breads. When he arrived he would always say, \u2018Next time I won\u2019t do it again for you Haj\u00e9\u2019, but only a week later my father would call him again.\u2019\u2019[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_content” full_screen_row_position=”middle” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” bg_color=”#f2f2f2″ scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″][vc_column column_padding=”padding-10-percent” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n

Hotels<\/h2>\n

In 1998 Hotel Joure was taken over by Haj\u00e9, this became the first hotel of the organization. All the hotel rooms got refurnished with an eye for detail and a veranda was build. Three years later, Haj\u00e9 Hotel Heerenveen<\/a> was added to the list as second hotel. A special place, considering Haj\u00e9 de Jager had worked here as a little boy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Later It also became possible to pass the night at Haj\u00e9 Aalscholver and Lepelaar. Two water lodges were build here subsidized by the European union. Both lodges granted a wonderful view over the Oostvaardersplassen. Due to the success, a hotel ark was build at Haj\u00e9 de Aalscholver in 2012.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ background_image=”6885″ column_shadow=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”]

Lelystad<\/h2>\n

I can safely say that the heart of our organization lies within Lelystad. Literally our Culinary heart but also our Haj\u00e9 Service and Support, our executive secretary department, human resources, marketing and administration. That, combined with this unique opportunities the township gave us, makes Lelystad a very special places for us.<\/span><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” top_padding=”120″ bottom_padding=”120″ overlay_strength=”0.3″][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_row_inner equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” column_margin=”default” text_align=”left” class=”haje-onder-dash-rij”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1\/4″ column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_link=”https:\/\/reserveer.haje.nu\/”][vc_column_text el_class=”haje-onder-dash-binnen klein”]\"\"<\/p>\n
