What Vredo does
Vredo B.V. is a Dutch family-owned manufacturer of agricultural and fine turf equipment, founded in 1947 and headquartered in Dodewaard, Netherlands. The company designs, produces, and sells self-propelled slurry tankers (VT series: VT3936, VT4546, VT4556, VT5536, VT7028-3, VT7138), slurry injectors (ZB and Profi series with working widths up to 18 meters), slicing filters (FT6200 and related models), and overseeders (DZ series including DZ4 Sport, DZ5 Agri Air, Agri Twin, Compact Agri, and multiple fine turf variants). Its core proprietary technology is the double-disc overseeding system developed in 1976, in which V-shaped paired discs cut precise slots into soil for seed deposition, along with slurry injection systems that place manure directly into the soil to reduce nitrogen emissions relative to surface broadcasting. All products are designed and assembled in-house at the Dodewaard facility, with annual production exceeding 800 machines.
Vredo operates two primary product divisions: Slurry Technology, focused on precision manure application for dairy and arable farming, and Overseeding Technology, covering grassland renewal for both agricultural and fine turf applications including golf courses, sports fields, and public green spaces. The company sells primarily through a global dealer network spanning more than 20 countries, complemented by direct sales support organized by division. Revenue is generated through new equipment sales, certified used equipment with verification on more than 100 quality points, original parts, and structured maintenance service packages (1,000-hour and 2,000-hour service intervals for VT series machines).
The business serves two principal customer segments: agricultural contractors and farmers requiring precision slurry application and grassland renewal, and greenkeepers, groundsmen, sports facility managers, and municipal landscaping professionals requiring fine turf maintenance equipment. The company is privately held under family ownership (with stated Christian values in its corporate identity) and operates without external funding, public listing, or identified parent company. Hans de Vree serves as CEO and general director. Sales support contacts include Thijs Reijnen for direct sales. Distribution partners include Danish Agro (Denmark, exclusive), Campey Turf Care (UK), Dotnuva Baltic (Baltics), Noble Equipment (Canada), and Norwood (New Zealand), among others.
