NL Van bron
Zeeman textielSupers is een Nederlandse winkelketen die in 1980 160 textielsupers van Brons overnam en anno 2020 bijna 1.300 vestigingen heeft in Nederland, België, Luxemburg, Duitsland, Frankrijk, Oostenrijk en Spanje. De eerste winkel werd geopend in maart 1967 door Jan Zeeman (1942–2020) in Alphen aan den Rijn. Die was opgezet als een soort supermarkt voor kleding en sloeg goed aan, zodat al snel de tweede vestiging werd geopend.

De huiskleuren van Zeeman zijn geel en blauw, met als boegbeeld een matroos. De winkels stralen eenvoud uit, in interieur, maar ook in verpakking van de producten. Veel kleding ligt los in metalen bakken, als op een markt. Sinds eind 2009 krijgen nieuwe winkels een moderne uitstraling doordat de kleur grijs wordt toegevoegd aan de huisstijl van Zeeman.
ENG From source
Zeeman TextielSupers is a Dutch retail chain that took over 160 textile supermarkets from Brons in 1980 and now has almost 1,300 branches in the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, France, Austria and Spain. The first store was opened in March 1967 by Jan Zeeman (1942–2020) in Alphen aan den Rijn. It was set up as a kind of supermarket for clothing and was a success, so that the second branch was soon opened.

Zeeman's house colors are yellow and blue, with a sailor as figurehead. The stores radiate simplicity, in their interior, but also in the packaging of the products. A lot of clothes are loose in metal bins, like in a market. Since the end of 2009, new stores have been given a modern look because the color gray has been added to Zeeman's house style.
