[[Jacques Dusseau & Co]] Through the initiative of a Mr J.K. Huizinga, of Amsterdam, and at the insistence of the [[Dutch]] churches in South Africa, the publishing firm [[Jacques Dusseau & Co]][https://af.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacques_Dusseau_%26_Co] of Amsterdam founded a branch in Cape Town on 1 May 1894, to sell and publish religious books among the [[Dutch]] speaking population of South Africa. The business was run by the Fellema brothers, and their initial publications were virtually all religious works, with some historical and educational publications from time to time.

By the late 1890s the Cape Town branch had run into financial difficulties , and was taken over by the Pretoria based branch of [[J.H. de Bussy]] Beperk (J.H. de Bussy Ltd) of Amsterdam, in 1900. The joint company began to publish some works under the new name of '''[[Hollandsch-Afrikaansche Uitgevers Maatshappij]]''', though [[J.H. de Bussy|De Bussy]] also continued to use its own imprint.

Due to problems with their other overseas businesses, the firm [[J.H. de Bussy|De Bussy]] withdrew from South Africa, and [[HAUM]] became a totally South African owned company.
