BLOM-DSW

What BLOM-DSW does

BLOM-DSW is a privately held commercial vehicle dealer and service organization headquartered in Honselersdijk, South Holland, Netherlands, founded in 1970 and operating through two legal entities (Diesel Service West B.V. and Blom's Automobielbedrijf B.V.). The company represents three brands — DAF Trucks, IVECO, and Piaggio Commercial — across six branches (Honselersdijk, Katwijk, Zoeterwoude, Zoetermeer, Delft, Gouda), covering the full commercial vehicle spectrum from 2,400 kg light commercial to 72-ton heavy trucks. Its product range spans diesel, CNG, and fully electric variants across both DAF (XB, XD, XF, XG, XG+, all available as Electric) and IVECO (Daily, eDaily, eJolly, eSuperJolly, Chassis Cabine) lines, plus Piaggio Porter NP6 for urban micro-mobility.

Revenue is generated through multiple streams: new and used vehicle sales (hardware), service and maintenance contracts (professional services), parts supply including multi-brand TRP parts, FOCWA-certified damage repair and in-house commercial vehicle painting, vehicle rental (primarily DAF tractors), periodic inspections (APK, tachograph, SCM alarm, L-Certificate, crane and hook arm certifications), and — increasingly — PACCAR Power Solutions electric vehicle charging infrastructure. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting logistics companies (e.g., Dekker Transport, Zeeman), construction firms, municipalities (Gemeente Alphen, AVALEX, H.M.S.), and SMB service businesses, supported by each branch having dedicated regional sales representatives and offering test drives, custom configuration, leasing via PACCAR Financial / IVECO Capital, and trade-ins.

The company's defensible position rests on its specialized environmental vehicle expertise (milieuvoertuigen — waste collection, vacuum trucks, cleaning vehicles), its first-mover sustainability certification (first DAF dealer to earn Erkend Duurzaam), comprehensive after-sales infrastructure (six warehouses with line service, 24/7 roadside assistance combining BLOM-DSW with DAF I.T.S. and IVECO Assistance, extended hours to 22:00), and a SCHMITZ Cargobull service partnership (since 2013) that extends capabilities to trailer maintenance. Certifications span ISO 9001, ISO 14001, FOCWA, BOVAG, RDW, AMTeK (ADReM), SAF, and WABCO, alongside Truck Academy erkend leerbedrijf status for technician training.
