Frans Brokx

Frans Brokx was a Dutch author and researcher who grew up in the family of a shoe manufacturer. He worked within his family's business and later dedicated himself to researching the history of the Dutch shoe industry, particularly focusing on the role of family-owned factories during the Second World War. His research led him to investigate the activities of his father's factory (Derby Schoenfabriek) and its potential involvement with the NSB. He authored 'De fabriek van mijn vader', a book detailing these historical inquiries.[1,2,3]
