Sallcon B.V.

What Sallcon B.V. does

Sallcon B.V. operates under the trade name KonnecteD, a Dutch social enterprise and sheltered workshop operator headquartered in Deventer, Netherlands, with 34 employees. The company functions as the designated work-and-learning company (werk- en leerbedrijf) for the municipalities of Deventer and Olst-Wijhe, developing residents who face a distance to the regular labor market and channeling them into employment. KonnecteD operates on two sides of the labor market: as a social employer offering sheltered work to those dependent on long-term support, and as a placement intermediary that supplies employers with trained, coached candidates through services such as work learning routes (werkleerroutes), outplacement, career guidance, and direct hiring support.

The organization does not appear to operate a proprietary technology platform; its service delivery is built around personal consultation, match events, and on-the-job coaching rather than software products. Sub-brands such as 'Social Sofa' (community storytelling) and 'Werkleerroutes' (structured work-learning programs) structure its offering, while partnerships with regional employers (Spar, Van Linde Onderwijs, Davo) and the regional cooperation framework Werkcentrum Veluwe Stedendriehoek provide the distribution backbone.

The revenue model is not publicly disclosed, but services are funded through a mix of municipal contracts, public subsidies tied to Dutch sheltered-employment and labor-participation regulations, and employer-paid service fees. The customer base is bifurcated: government/public-sector clients (Deventer and Olst-Wijhe municipalities) on the funding side, and regional employers (retail, education, logistics) on the placement side. No external venture capital, private equity, or public market funding has been identified, consistent with its role as a publicly affiliated social enterprise rather than a venture-backed company.
