More than 55 professionals at BAKON make our machines and service better every day
BAKON is a stable, expanding company. A company where the engine of our progress, is the drive of our engineers. Every colleague sees and understands that. The heart of the company beats for and because of technology. Our support services aid and unburden our engineers, From Research & Development, Engineering to the Sales, Production and Service departments.
That is why every colleague at BAKON is equally important
If the colleagues from R&D and Sales don’t bring up relevant questions out from the market and our customers, our developers cannot act. If our P&O employees do not create the conditions in which our engineers and production department can improve, sand can get into the machinery. And you don’t have to be an engineer to understand that the engine will then falter. We avoid this by working together as a team, like a well-oiled machine. This is how we make the difference in the world of innovative bakery machines. We celebrate successes together!
BAKON is growing and got the taste for more!
BAKON operates independently as a part of the Coperion, an international group of world leading technology providers in both the food and health industry. Although BAKON works independently, the expertise, knowledge and experience of other companies within the group is important for BAKON’S ongoing development. By combining knowledge and expertise, we can achieve desired growth faster and more efficiently. This means growth in technology, market expansion as well as penetration. But also the development of our employees and indeed the entire organisation: Alone you go faster, together you go further.
Working at BAKON?
Everyone is important and motivated at BAKON. We try to bring out the best in everyone by developing what they are good at and by helping our colleagues to achieve their goals and ambitions. Why? Because that’s when people come into their own. This works well and efficiently for everyone as well as the organization. The atmosphere within our company is open, relaxed and collegial and the lines of communication are short. Of course there has to be performance. But because of the way we work together, everyone is included in a positive way. This creates the feeling of joint objectives and achievements at BAKON and that’s exactly how it is.
Employees speak
"Hey there! Welcome to BAKON Food Equipment, the place where experience, craftsmanship, and ambition come together. I'm Halilcan Durgun, 24 years old, and living in Terneuzen. In my free time, I enjoy being busy myself in the kitchen and I'm a beginning enthusiast in photography, which complements my other passion: traveling!
My journey with BAKON started during my final year of studies when I had the opportunity to do my graduation assignment here. It was a choice I've never regretted. What I find truly amazing is that right from day one, there is a complete investment in you as an individual to help you grow into the person you aspire to be. Ambitions are encouraged, and with the personal guidance of experienced colleagues, there is always room to learn new things. As an Order Manager in the Sales Department, I'm on the commercial side of the company, interacting with customers from all over the world on a daily basis. This aligns perfectly with my education and background. Assisting customers and securing orders gives me a sense of fulfillment every day as I head home.
For me, success comes not only from hard work but also from the joy and satisfaction I derive from what I do!
If you recognize yourself in my story and are eager to join our dynamic team, I enthusiastically encourage you to apply today, without any obligations!”

The world is our playing field
From the city of Goes in our small country, we serve customers worldwide. We operate on all continents. This is often done through local dealers and/or agencies. This also means that our account managers, service technicians and product specialists make long flying hours. All this makes us an internationally oriented company. In the workplace, the working language is Dutch, but many of our colleagues speak several different languages. Delegations from abroad regularly visit our company and its brand new BAKON Experience Center. In this facility the BAKON equipment really comes to life.
‘CONTINUOUS MACHINE OPTIMIZATION .
Robotization is human work!
Staff shortages are a problem in many parts of the world. Companies strive to increase efficiency and that is why demand for robotization is increasing worldwide. BAKON responds to that demand and has acquired a leading position in the development and construction of smart machinery. We want to maintain and develop that position. We are looking for qualified people to help us achieve this. People who master these techniques and want to develop them further in our teams. This principally concerns the integration of software and customer-specific solutions for the operation of our equipment lines. Coming up with smart, progressive solutions that help our customers further is and remains human work. We see a major challenge in this field and if you share this vision, we hope you want to get to know us.
BAKON is located in the beating heart of the province of Zeeland: Goes
BAKON is situated in Goes in the south west of The Netherlands, directly on highway A58. Goes is a bustling city that occupies an excellent position within the top 10 of top economic locations in the Netherlands (source: EW and Louter 2022). Goes forms the beating heart of the Province of Zeeland and is easily accessible from West Brabant, Greater Rotterdam and the regions around Antwerp and Ghent (all within 1 hour’s drive). In and around Goes is a good place to live, work, study and recreate. Traffic jams are rare, the coast is nearby and life is more laid back here than in other parts of the country. You will also find comparable living and housing facilities in nearby cities such as Middelburg and Vlissingen. And, last but not least, housing prices are certainly interesting for people coming from outside of Zeeland.
