About

As a Commercial Manager at Zwijnenburg, a family-owned business with nearly 70 years of experience, I am dedicated to delivering high-quality products and services in yacht and shipbuilding, engineering, and machining. Zwijnenburg is globally recognized as a reliable partner, thanks to our passion and craftsmanship. With a well-equipped shipyard in the heart of Rotterdam and a modern machine factory, we offer complete solutions, from constructing hulls for the world’s largest yachts to complex machining projects and certified welding work. Every project is unique, and we always strive for perfection in execution. Our shipyard features a 150-meter slipway, large section construction halls, an 80-ton tower crane, and a 200-meter mooring quay, enabling us to handle a wide range of projects in yacht building, shipbuilding, and offshore. Additionally, through Zwijnenburg Yachting, we are active worldwide in conversion, refit, and yacht construction, supported by our 24/7 available 'flying squad.' In our machine factory, we combine modern turning and milling machines with certified welding and construction work. We excel in quick repairs, small series, and combination projects, and are strong in machining, steel structures, and 3D measuring. Despite our growth, we remain a true family business. Our long-term vision is based on continuous innovation and training the next generation. We create a future for both our customers and our employees, driven by passion and craftsmanship.
