What Hodes Huisvesting 100-jaar does

Hodes Huisvesting B.V. is a Dutch designer, manufacturer, and operator of modular and circular housing solutions for the social real estate market, founded in 1925 and headquartered in Goor, Overijssel. The company serves three vertical segments — Wonen (residential housing), Zorgen (healthcare housing), and Leren (education) — targeting institutional and governmental buyers including housing corporations, municipalities, healthcare institutions, project developers, and investors. Following a 1970 pivot from traditional construction to fully modular unit construction and a 2017 management buyout, the 41-person company operates a single production facility in Goor and delivers projects exclusively within the Netherlands.

Hodes' product portfolio spans compact single-module units (Miniwoning, 28–42 m² BVO), multi-module family homes (Basiswoning, 43–68 m² BVO; Pluswoning, 68–85 m² BVO), healthcare-specific solutions (Hodes Zorgkamer and Hodes Sanitairruimte for WMO clients and care institutions), and modular schools and childcare facilities. The underlying technology is a steel-framed, factory-conditioned prefab system using dry, demountable connections and timber-frame exterior walls, which allows buildings to be expanded, reconfigured, relocated, or removed without demolition. Products meet Dutch Building Decree (Bouwbesluit) standards for permanent and/or temporary construction; residential units achieve a GPR sustainability score of at least 8, the Pluswoning achieves an MPG below 0.5 with LI >92% and BCI >65%, Zorgkamer units achieve specified Rc insulation values, and schools meet Frisse Scholen Class B standards. Hodes holds ISO and VCA certifications.

Revenue is generated through project-based one-time sales of modular units, supplemented by recurring maintenance services and an optional rental model. The go-to-market is consultative and direct-sales-led, with prospective clients directed to contact forms and a dedicated phone line (088-398 00 00) for free non-binding price indications. Design is supported by a strategic architectural partnership with LKSVDD Architecten. The company is privately held with no disclosed external institutional investors.
