Tolsma Tanks taken over by TAB de Blesse

Heerenveen, 15 December 2021 – The companies Tolsma Tanks, Tolsma Tankbouw and Tolsma Service, part of the holding company Tolsma Vastgoed B.V. established in Heerenveen, have been taken over as per Tuesday 14 December 2021 by TAB de Blesse Holding B.V. established in De Blesse and part of Groeneveld Exploitatie B.V. in Boskoop.

Both companies, located in Friesland and specialised in the production of storage tanks, are family businesses with a history that goes back 26 years (Tolsma Tanks) and 70 years (TAB de Blesse). In their long history, the two companies have developed into very successful organisations thanks to the enormous efforts of their employees and the great confidence of suppliers and customers.

Family Tolsma: ‘After years of doing business with great pleasure it is now time for the next step. We know TAB de Blesse and the Groeneveld family and trust that the company is in good hands. We are not saying goodbye completely, as Jorn Tolsma will continue to work for the company and will focus more on technology.

Groeneveld family: ‘We are very proud to be taking over this successful family company and our biggest goal is to keep on guaranteeing the continuity and growth of both companies. We are looking forward to the future with great ambition.

With the takeover, managing directors/owners Harm and Jorn Tolsma will take a step back and the current Tolsma management will be succeeded by the Groeneveld Exploitatie management, Harold and Frank Groeneveld.
