In Belgium de Bijenkorf is not that kind of a cultural phenomenon, lacking the physical department stores. Some might have visited a Dutch branch once, but that’s probably it. Above all, in Belgium de Bijenkorf is a web store, and not the only one. That is precisely why a distinctive brand is of the utmost importance.
