Troost Machinehandel

What Troost Machinehandel does

Troost Machinehandel B.V. is a privately held Dutch equipment dealer and importer headquartered in Numansdorp, South Holland, with 30+ years of operating history. The company imports, sells, and rents construction, earthmoving, and recycling machinery, and operates a wholly-owned service subsidiary, Troost Techniek BV, that provides maintenance, parts, warranty handling, and 24-hour breakdown response backed by a 2000 m² workshop and six mobile service vehicles.

Its core offering spans new machine sales, used equipment sales through a dedicated online platform (gebruikt.troostbv.com), short- and long-term rentals, spare parts for multiple OEM brands (CASE, DOOSAN, NEUSON, KRAMER, GIANT, ITR, DEHACO, MESSERSI, MIKASA), and a broad attachments portfolio. The product catalogue covers tracked excavators, wheel loaders, mini and midi excavators, mobile excavators, skid steers, bulldozers, graders, material handlers, shredders, trommel screens, metal separators, flat screens, and conveyor belts, with custom machine assembly to customer specifications.

The business model combines multi-brand import and dealer distribution with a captive service operation. Troost holds official importer status for CASE Construction Equipment, Generac Mobile, Pramac, and Terex Ecotec in the Netherlands, and dealer rights for Fuchs handling cranes in Southwest Netherlands. Pricing is quote-based with financing offered through CNH Capital. Customers are Dutch contractors, recycling companies, and small landscapers served via direct sales, the online comparison platform with 182+ machine listings, email newsletters, and Instagram. No AI/ML capabilities are evident; the value proposition is grounded in physical distribution rights, multi-OEM service capability, and geographic responsiveness rather than software differentiation.
