Leo and René founded their own company
In 1995 Leo and Rene started their own company in Schiedam, in an old building that used to be a distillery. The building was not in very good shape, temperature in summer and winter was an issue.
Tanis was founded in 1995 by Leo and Rene Tanis, who had honed the craft of making confectionery during 20 years’ working for a kitchen equipment manufacturer partly owned by their father.
To begin with, Tanis focused solely on kitchen processing equipment for making all kinds of sweets, including hard candy, soft candy, chews, bars and nougat.
In 2014, Tanis broadened its equipment scope to complete production lines, while specializing these for the production of gummies and jellies.

In 1996 TC&C was for the first time on the Interpack, they shared a stand together with their brother Peter of TFT. The father of Leo and Rene was also present and proud on all his sons.
