Hoondert Groep

What Hoondert Groep does

Hoondert Groep, legally Aannemings- en Verhuurbedrijf J. Hoondert & Zn B.V., is a privately held, family-owned Dutch civil engineering contractor founded in 1980 and headquartered in 's-Heerenhoek, Zeeland. The company operates an integrated portfolio of eleven services — earthworks and infrastructure, demolition, soil and tank remediation, recycling, transport, industrial cleaning, equipment rental, loading/unloading, winter maintenance, 24/7 calamity response, and engineering & design — supported by an owned modern fleet of heavy equipment (excavators, crawler and mobile cranes, sweepers, dump trucks, low-loaders, mobile crushing installation) and an in-house Puindepot Walcheren recycling facility in Middelburg that produces BRL 2506-certified aggregates with a stated 98% demolition-material reuse rate. Technically, execution is anchored by GPS-controlled 3D modelling for precision earthworks and grade control on infrastructure projects such as dyke reinforcement.

Hoondert generates revenue primarily through project-based contracting (tenders and direct awards) for civil, demolition and remediation works, complemented by recurring streams from equipment rental (with or without operator), certified recycled-aggregate sales, reusable building-material retail through the Bouwshop in Goes, transport and exceptional-load logistics, industrial cleaning contracts, and event-driven 24/7 emergency response fees. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales: direct client relationships with government entities (municipalities, provinces, waterschappen), project developers (e.g., Bouwgroep De Nijs-Soffers, Aan de Kreek Ontwikkeling), industrial and commercial clients (e.g., Dirk van den Broek, Continental Carparks), and construction firms renting equipment. Pricing is per-project and not publicly disclosed; the company operates under the CAO Groen, Grond en Infrastructuur collective labour agreement, and recruitment signals salaries in the €2,400–€4,500 monthly range depending on role and experience. Customers are concentrated regionally in Zeeland and West-Brabant, with stated activity across the Netherlands, and procurement is heavily gated by certifications (VCA**, ISO 9001/14001, BRL SVMS-007, BRL SIKB 7000, BRL 2506, CO2 Prestatieladder niveau 3, NIWO-VIHB and EG-vergunning) that double as competitive moats in the regulated Dutch public-works market.
