"Aan de Korevaarstraat 30-30a bevind zich een markant en karakteristiek pand – de oude broodfabriek Ceres - in de stad beter bekend als ’De Vooruit’ naar de coöperatie die er in 1931 introk en tot 1966 in het gebouw actief was.
In 1894 ontwierp W.C.Mulder het linkerdeel van het complex in Neo-Renaissance stijl. De uitbreiding van het rechterdeel dateert uit 1910. Opdrachtgever van de bouw was de Broodfabriek Ceres. Van 1931 tot 1966 was hier de broodfabriek van de Arbeiders Coöperatie 'Vooruit' gevestigd. Hier waren een bakkerij, consumentencoöperatie en zieken en verzekerings-fonds gevestigd."
