Trivia
De Bijenkorf (literally: The Beehive) is a chain of upmarket department stores in the Netherlands.
Inside the hexagon the logo shows the outline contour of a classic beehive. The hexagon itself refers to the internal structures of a beehive that comprise a densely packed matrix of hexagonal cells made of beeswax, called a honeycomb.

Founded in 1870 as a small store, it offers many prestigious fashion brands in womenswear, menswear, accessories, beauty, food, and home. De Bijenkorf is currently owned by Maxeda (formerly known as VendexKBB), which also owns the lower positioned department stores Vroom & Dreesmann and until sold in 2007 the HEMA.
