What Wit Wognum does

Aannemingsbedrijf Wit Wognum B.V. is a Dutch general construction contractor headquartered in Wognum, North Holland, operating for over 115 years (founded 1909). The company operates as a full-service builder across six service lines: Nieuwbouw (new construction), Verbouw (renovation and conversion), Restauratie (heritage/monument restoration), Transformatie (adaptive reuse), Verduurzaming (sustainability and energy retrofits), and Onderhoud & Beheer (maintenance and management). Its project portfolio spans residential (single-family homes, apartment complexes), commercial and retail (supermarkets such as Albert Heijn, Aldi, and Deen), healthcare and educational facilities (hospitals, care homes, schools), and government projects across North Holland.

The company serves two primary customer segments: private individuals (Particulieren) seeking construction, renovation, or home improvement services, and professional clients (Professionele Opdrachtgevers) including housing corporations, healthcare and educational institutions, government bodies, and commercial enterprises. Revenue is generated through project-based contracts with each project individually quoted by the company's Calculatie department based on scope, specifications, and complexity. Multi-year contracts are typical for larger institutional engagements. The company holds VCA-2-ster and ISO-9001 certifications and is a member of Bouwend Nederland.

Wit Wognum operates as part of Westerspoor Beheer B.V., a holding company alongside sister firm A-Zeven Projectontwikkeling B.V., a project development company that creates a developer-contractor pipeline. Distribution is exclusively direct, with no intermediaries, serving clients throughout North Holland with a focus on the West-Friesland region. The company is privately held with no public funding or M&A activity disclosed. Johan Wit serves as Director.
