  Sign of "hofleverancier" in NL

The Netherlands are already quite a while a kingdom and the royal family is rather popular with the Dutch. Now, a funny thing that in The Netherlands shops and company that deliver goods and services to the royal family (or did that once in the past), they are officially allowed to call themselves "hofleverancier" (court deliverer). This comes with a sign, which they might use in public. So, if you're visiting a place and discover the weapon as seen in the picture ... you know that you can buy here something that also has been bought here by the queen or a member of her family.
