Our Past

The roots of the NSF date back to the nineteenth century. In 1853 the Koninklijke Hausemann & Hötte N.V. (H&H) was founded in Amsterdam. After decades of steady growth and the introduction in the Netherlands of classics like Mecano and Dinky Toy H&H decided to open it’s own manufacturing facility in 1950; the NSF. Millions of H&H products, famous fort he brand names Jumbo, Papita and King, left the NSF factory ever since. First in Amsterdam, later in Wognum and finally, since the opening by H.K.H. Maxima in 2006, in Medemblik.

In 2007 H&H was bought by the Monchy Group and the NSF develops as an independent production partner for publishers, large and small, all over the world. With pride we look back at the hundreds of titles that leave our factory annually and the satisfied customers it brings. From a custom puzzle for the village fete to famous titles like Carcassonne and Catan we proud ourselves on the same active support and high quality product for every customer.

On behalf of the entire team we sincerely hope to meet you soon and guide your product efficiently through our factory!
