What cornerpoint does

Cornerpoint B.V. is a privately held Dutch marine and industrial diesel engine parts distributor headquartered in Sliedrecht, Netherlands, operating as a subsidiary of the Teus Vlot Group. Founded in 1992, the company supplies new, used, and reconditioned diesel engines and marine spare parts from more than 30 brands including Cummins, Scania, Caterpillar, MAN, Deutz, Yanmar, SISU, Volvo, DAF, and Mitsubishi, alongside complementary products such as generator sets, couplings, ship gearboxes, separators, radiators, installation tools, and dredging equipment. The company holds official licensed dealer status with Cummins, Scania, Yanmar, and SISU Diesel, giving it OEM-authorised sales and service rights that non-authorised resellers cannot easily replicate.

The company's core capabilities centre on a worldwide express logistics network that ships professionally packed parts on the first available flight to any destination, with documented same-day intercontinental deliveries, and an in-house workshop at its Sliedrecht harbour facility performing complete engine overhauls, cylinder head refurbishment, ultrasonic cleaning, valve and seat fitting, engine block repair, and connecting rod machining. Cornerpoint draws on the Teus Vlot Group's approximately 75 technical staff across diesel/marine, electrical, revisions, and machining divisions, providing cross-discipline technical expertise and a single point of contact for complex projects.

The business model is B2B sales-led and enterprise field-sales oriented, targeting ship owners, operators, shipyards, fishing companies, and dredging operators. Revenue is generated through one-time sales of engines and parts across new, used, and reconditioned conditions, supplemented by professional services for repair and overhaul. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with customers transacting via a filterable online stock inventory, website request forms, and 24/7 phone/email contact. Geographic reach spans the Netherlands, multiple African markets (South Africa, Namibia, Mozambique, Angola), and European customers (Poland, Belgium), with worldwide delivery capability.

Broad incumbents

• Cummins: Global diesel and alternative-fuel engine manufacturer with marine, industrial, and power generation product lines. Cummins is one of Cornerpoint's four core authorized brand partners, representing both a key supply relationship and a competitive threat via Cummins' own service network.
• Wärtsilä: Global leader in marine engines and lifecycle services with a broad portfolio including engine manufacturing, service network, and digital solutions. Wärtsilä's service business overlaps directly with Cornerpoint's overhaul and parts supply, but operates at vastly greater scale across all major maritime segments.
• Caterpillar Marine: Marine division of Caterpillar Inc. supplying diesel and gas marine propulsion and auxiliary engines. Cornerpoint stocks Caterpillar engines and parts and supplies them to operators, making Caterpillar a key OEM counterpart; Caterpillar also runs its own global dealer and service network that competes with Cornerpoint for service work.
• MAN Energy Solutions: Major marine diesel and dual-fuel engine OEM with its own global service network. Directly comparable to Cornerpoint as MAN is one of the engine brands Cornerpoint actively supports and supplies parts for, but MAN operates at far greater scale as the manufacturer rather than distributor.
• Deutz AG: German manufacturer of diesel and gas engines for marine, automotive, agricultural, and industrial applications. Comparable to Cornerpoint as a key engine brand it supplies parts for, with demonstrated urgent-delivery reference work (the 19-hour 10,000km Deutz 6M628 delivery case).
• Volvo Penta: Marine engine OEM providing propulsion and auxiliary power for commercial marine and leisure vessels. Comparable to Cornerpoint as a major engine brand it serves, with overlapping customer base in commercial marine operators and a global authorized service network.
• Yanmar Marine: Japanese manufacturer of marine diesel engines, generator sets, and propulsion systems with global service coverage. Yanmar is one of Cornerpoint's authorized OEM partners, and the companies share target customers in fishing, coastal shipping, and workboat segments.
• IHI Power Systems: Japanese manufacturer of large marine diesel and gas engines as part of IHI Corporation, with an after-sales service network. Comparable to Cornerpoint in serving marine engine customers across commercial shipping and offshore, though IHI operates primarily as an OEM rather than distributor.

Direct peers

• Hatz Diesel: German manufacturer of compact diesel engines and power systems for construction, marine, and industrial applications. Similar to Cornerpoint in operating in a specialized engine niche with mixed OEM and service/reconditioning offerings, though with smaller engines and different end-customer mix.
• Anglo Belgian Corporation: Belgian mid-sized manufacturer of medium-speed diesel and dual-fuel engines for marine and power generation applications. Closely comparable to Cornerpoint's positioning in terms of focus on medium-speed marine engines and customer overlap in coastal shipping and auxiliary power segments.
