Aannemersbedrijf J.m. Putter

What Aannemersbedrijf J.m. Putter does

Aannemersbedrijf J.M. Putter is a Dutch family-owned general contractor founded in 1966 in Uitgeest, Netherlands, that has evolved from a carpentry workshop into a multi-disciplinary construction firm operating in the premium "topsegment" of the regional market. The company delivers four core service lines — Scholenbouw (school construction), Utiliteitsbouw (commercial/utility construction), Luxe villa bouw (luxury villa construction), and Woningbouw (residential construction) — and supplements these with an in-house development arm, P3, which initiates and commercialises its own residential projects. Its client base spans private individuals, government bodies (including Gemeente Amstelveen, Gemeente Uitgeest, and Nieuwspoort Den Haag), architects, financial institutions (Rabobank), healthcare providers, and project developers, with work concentrated in the North Holland province and the broader Amsterdam metropolitan area.

The business operates as a traditional general contractor on a project-by-project basis, earning revenue through fixed-price contracts, tenders, and direct commissions. Pricing is project-specific and not publicly disclosed, and go-to-market is sales-led and consultative, relying on direct engagement, architect relationships, and public procurement. The firm holds Woningborg, BouwGarant, Kiwa-VCA, ISO 9001, and ISO 14001 certifications, is a member of Bouwend Nederland, and is an SBB-recognised learning company operating the Putter Academy apprenticeship programme. Notable project evidence includes the energy-efficient HWC Sportcentrum Amstelveen, the modernisation of Nieuwspoort Den Haag, the renovation of Rabobank Hoofddorp, the De Beer dementia care home in Naarden, and the Hercules Arena in Alkmaar.

Currently led by second-generation directors Arjan and Frank Putter, the company has no external investors, no parent company, and no publicly disclosed revenue. It operates from a sustainable office building in Uitgeest occupied since 2011, with a headcount in the 11–50 range, and functions as a privately held family enterprise focused on craftsmanship, complex project delivery, and regional North Holland market presence.
