ACQUISITION

Philip Sluiter, owner of O2 Capital Partners: “We are delighted to become part of the rich heritage of Royal Huisman Group. Our goal is to further build on the current healthy foundation and invest in the future of this iconic company for the long term. We recognize the potential in the combination of craftsmanship and innovation that characterizes Royal Huisman Group.”

In recent years, Royal Huisman Group has undergone an impressive and successful transition. After a decade of constructive involvement, the current shareholders, Koninklijke Doeksen and Parcom, now support the transition to O2 Capital Partners.

Jan Willem Doeksen, representative of the current shareholders, says: “It has been an honor to support and develop Royal Huisman Group into the leading company it is today. We leave behind a company with a strong order portfolio and a dedicated team of specialists.”

STRATEGY

Royal Huisman Group is ready to embark on the next phase in its long and rich history. Jan Timmerman, CEO of Royal Huisman Group, emphasizes: “Despite a challenging decade, the current shareholders have always provided us with the trust and support for which I am grateful. With the arrival of O2 Capital Partners, we have found a new investor who shares our values and passion and will assist us in realizing our ambitious strategy for the long term.”

The acquisition is expected to be completed in August 2024. In addition to the products and services of Rondal and Huisfit, Royal Huisman will continue to focus on delivering ultimate superyachts with an emphasis on craftsmanship, sustainability, and innovation.
