11 areas, one small country

Unevenly Belgian.

Belgium fits in a two-hour drive, but its products do not spread evenly. East Flanders alone holds 17 of the 70 pinned listings, while 3 provinces manage a single one.

Schematic, not cartographic: each province is a rectangle placed by rough adjacency. East Flanders leads with 17 listings.

No single pin

Belgium-wide.

For these listings the evidence names Belgium without naming one production site or office. Guessing a province would be inventing provenance, so we leave the pin off.
