About Us

From dump trading to a specialist in mobile cranes

The origins of this family business date back to 1968, with the establishment of a surplus trading company in Harderwijk, specializing in American surplus goods and vehicles, including REO recovery trucks with Austin Western superstructures. In 1974, the company relocated to Nunspeet and was named Homar B.V. During this period, an important transition took place: the focus shifted from surplus goods to the trading of passenger cars, trucks, earthmoving equipment, and mobile cranes. From the 1980s onwards, the family business increasingly specialized in mobile cranes—a direction that remains at the core of its activities to this day. In that same period, the next generation joined the company, with each family member contributing their own expertise. This generational transition marked the beginning of a tradition in which the business was passed from father to son. In 1992, Homar B.V. moved to the Lepelingen industrial estate, where a warehouse was built for storage and logistics activities. This location remains the beating heart of the company. Looking to the future, Homar B.V. continues to build on a foundation of shared expertise, dedication, and family pride—values that have guided the company for generations.

International growth and worldwide trade in mobile cranes

Following the founder’s death in 1995, the family business was taken over by the next generation. The focus shifted entirely to the international trade in mobile cranes. During this period, specialist technicians were also appointed, further expanding the technical services offered. The warehouse was repurposed as a workshop, and a modern office building was constructed on the site. Thanks to these developments, the company grew steadily into an internationally renowned organisation within the sector. Homar B.V. now operates worldwide. The company’s operations are still based on the core values of trust, transparency and long-term customer relationships. This ensures that customers keep coming back — some for over fifty years — whilst new clients also find their way to Nunspeet with ease.
