Revenue model

1. Hourly care service fees: ZorgMies charges for hourly care services. Services start from as little as 2 hours per week. Care is provided by self-employed caregivers (ZZP'ers/freelancers) contracted through the franchise network. The company generates revenue through service fees charged to clients, which can be funded privately or through government/health insurance schemes (PGB, Zvw, Wlz, Wmo).
2. Franchise/license fees: Regional entrepreneurs (licensees) operate their own ZorgMies office under the national brand. They pay a franchise or licensing fee to the franchisor (ZorgMies Nederland BV) in exchange for the brand, operational model, training, and national marketing support.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves8 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Tzorg: Major Dutch home care organization delivering both medical and non-medical home support. Comparable target segments (elderly, chronically ill) and broad Dutch footprint, but a much larger incumbent.
• Buurtzorg Nederland: Largest Dutch home care provider, focused primarily on skilled nursing, but increasingly competes for the same elderly client and municipality-funded demand that ZorgMies addresses.
• Allerzorg: Dutch specialized home care provider with strong pediatric and complex-care focus; overlaps with ZorgMies' family-assistance and supplemental-care segments while also offering medical home care.

Emerging players

• NaaST Zorg: Smaller Dutch non-medical home support provider focused on companionship and informal caregiver relief. Similar service philosophy and target audience, but with a more limited geographic footprint.

Direct peers

• Saar aan Huis: Dutch franchise network offering non-medical companion and home support to elderly clients. Closest direct competitor with a near-identical companionship-plus-household-help model and regional licensee structure.
• Home Instead Nederland: International home care franchise active in the Netherlands providing companionship, personal care, and dementia support for seniors. Comparable mission, clientele, and franchisee-based distribution model.
• Mantelaar: Dutch organization supporting informal caregivers (mantelzorgers) with supplemental care and respite services. Overlaps with ZorgMies' family-caregiver value proposition and PGB/Wmo funding pathway.

Regional players

• Participe Groep: Dutch care organization providing Wmo-supported household help and companionship in select regions. Overlaps with ZorgMies' household-help and personal-care services, but with a more regional, municipality-tied footprint.

Others

• Mantelzorgmakelaar Nederland: Network of care brokers supporting informal caregivers; ZorgMies already partners with mantelzorgmakelaars. Adjacent rather than competitive, but a key referral channel and shared end-customer.
• ZorgthuisNL: Industry association for Dutch home care providers of which ZorgMies is a member. Relevant as an ecosystem enabler shaping standards, advocacy, and reimbursement policy that affects ZorgMies' operating environment.
