What Condor Group does

Condor Group is a privately held, family-owned Dutch textile floor coverings conglomerate, founded in 1992 in Hasselt, Netherlands by Jan and Gerrit Hoekman with Teus van Beek, and now operated by the second generation of the founding family. The group self-describes as the largest carpet producer in the European Union, operating ten specialized member companies — Condor Carpets, VEBE, Condor Cartex, Condor Grass, Condor Techtex, Timzo, Edel Carpets, Edel Yarns, Intercarpet, and Betap — plus acquired brand FINDEISEN/FINETT, producing approximately 200 million m² of floor covering annually with 1,250+ employees and revenue of approximately €700 million. The integrated portfolio spans wall-to-wall carpets, needle felt, carpet tiles, woven carpets, automotive textile semi-finished goods, artificial grass for landscaping and sports, and technical textiles; notable proprietary technologies include the ALLOA 100%-recyclable mono-material platform, the temperature-responsive Colorshift artificial grass developed with TenCate Grass, and the FIH-certified DW Hockey System. Vertically integrated yarn production (Edel Yarns), Dutch manufacturing facilities in Hasselt, Genemuiden and Blokzijl, plus US logistics hubs support B2B distribution through wholesalers, retail chains, industrial buyers, and Tier-1/Tier-2 automotive OEMs across 100+ countries. The 'On a roll to zero emission' sustainability strategy targets 100% electricity neutrality by 2030 via the ENGIE solar park partnership (Dorhout-Mees, 328,088 panels), and the ALLOA sub-brand positions the group for circular-economy specifications in construction (BREEAM Outstanding, Blue Angel, Eurofins Indoor Air Comfort Gold) and automotive (world's first 100% recyclable mono-material car carpet). Pricing and customer terms are not publicly disclosed, reflecting the firm's enterprise B2B orientation; recent growth has been driven primarily by M&A (Intercarpet 2023, Betap 2023, FINDEISEN 2024), capacity expansion (VEBE Zuid factory from 2023), and product innovation (Colorshift 2024, DW Hockey System 2025).
