Taxi Kaijer

What Taxi Kaijer does

Taxi Kaijer bv is a privately held, family-owned passenger transport company headquartered in Wervershoof, Netherlands, operating a fleet of approximately 84 vehicles and roughly 100 employees to deliver approximately 200,000 trips per year across the North-Holland region. Founded in 1946 by Jaap Kaijer and now in its third generation of family leadership under Rob and Toos Kaijer, the company has evolved from a street-taxi operation into a multi-segment provider offering individual taxi rides (up to 4 passengers), taxibus transport (up to 8 passengers), wheelchair-accessible transport compliant with VVR safety standards, healthcare transport contracted with all Dutch health insurers, pupil transport for Westfriesland schools and municipalities, WSW client transport, Valys national disability transport, Schiphol airport transfers (24/7), and charter services via a 20-person VIP bus and 50-person touringcar under the Kaijer Busvervoer sub-brand.

The underlying technology stack consists of modern fleet management and booking systems, taximeters with km- and time-based pricing rounded to €0.10 increments, and a demonstrably advanced vehicle fleet in which approximately two-thirds (~40 vehicles) are electric, comprising Mercedes EQB, Mercedes eVito, and Opel eVito/eVivaro models. Approximately 85 vehicles span standard taxis, minivans, wheelchair buses, and touringcars, supported by wheelchair fastening systems, lifts and ramps, and VVR-trained chauffeurs. The company holds TX Keur quality certification, is a member of DVG Personenvervoer, and displays Award Duurzaam Medemblik (2017) recognition. No proprietary software platforms, mobile applications, or AI-driven components are disclosed; booking is conducted via phone (0228 583000), website forms, and direct institutional contacts.

The business model is hybrid direct-to-consumer and direct-to-institutional, with no third-party intermediaries. Consumer revenue is generated per-ride via taximeter-based fees (standard taxi base €4.00 + €3.00/km + €0.50/min; wheelchair bus base €8.40 + €3.85/km + €0.57/min; wait tariff €55.00/hour). Institutional revenue is contracted and recurring, with direct billing to all Dutch health insurers for authorized medical transport, and direct contracts with municipalities for WMO and pupil transport, WSW organizations, Valys, and schools. Customer segments are diversified across six primary use cases — student transport, healthcare/medical transport, disabled/accessibility transport, airport transfers, individual and group taxi, and charter/group travel — with secondary segments in WSW client transport. The company is privately held outside the family ownership structure, with no external investors, no funding rounds, and no IPO activity.
