Corporate book 2015 | Rensen-Driessen Shipbuilding BV

Rensen-Driessen Ship Brokers B.V. is an outstanding partner for the negotiation, purchase, sale and financing of existing ships. Our business consists of dry cargo vessels, tankers, passenger ships and pontoons. Our experience and expertise enables us to provide even starters with expert guidance and advice about the right vessel and the right financing options. George Rensen (sworn shipbroker), Wim Driessen and Twan de Goeij (both qualified E.M.C.I. shipbrokers) have for a long time been ac- tive in the existing ship market, both in the Netherlands and abroad. Our network is huge and covers many different areas of the maritime industry. When you use our services, you get what you are looking for because you will have chosen our personal way of doing business. After spending years on board, George Rensen returned to dry land and at the age of 33 started work at a ships mortgage bank as commercial assistant. Several years later, he decided he wanted to set up his own company and in 1980 he founded Rensen B.V. with which he began to focus on ship brokerage. In due course George Rensen was able to call himself a “sworn shipbroker” but he wanted to do more than broker the purchase and sale of existing ships so he began to specialise in the design, construction and completion of hulls. Negotiating the purchase and sale of existing ships was taken over by Wim Driessen and Twan de Goeij in 2006. They changed the name of the company to Rensen-Driessen Ship Brokers B.V. The leaders of Rensen-Driessen Ship Brokers B.V. form a close and enthusiastic team that has earned its place in the maritime industry, both in the tanker and dry cargo industries. The inland waterway market is going through turbulent times. In spite of this, with regard to the purchase and sale of existing ships, there is still some movement in the market. We manages to flourish, even when times are tough, because of the personal approach they have toward doing business.

On account of the fact that the development and construction of ships takes place with the “Rensen-Driessen Group”, we are able to take care of everything you need under one roof.
