Be-Ge Seating B.V./GmbH

Be-Ge Seating B.V. has been a Be-Ge company since 2014, having previously been one of the oldest independent sales agents for the BE-GE brand in Central Europe.

Be-Ge Seating B.V. in the Netherlands, together with the subsidiary Be-Ge Seating GmbH in Germany, represents the Be-Ge Seating Division in each country as well as in Belgium and France. With a business focus on being Be-Ge Seating Division’s representative in Central Europe, customers are offered service in the language of their own country and with a local presence. The company sells and represents all seating products and brands of the Be-Ge Seating Division.

The facility offers a complete spare parts warehouse, installation service, and maintenance and repairs. Well-trained staff offer customer-specific seat adjustments and perform assembly of the products according to the customer’s wishes.

The past year

The year started with an increasing order intake thanks to the recovery in the market and active sales work in the Netherlands, Belgium, France and Germany. Order intake remained high throughout the year for all segments, including service and maintenance, which resulted in significantly better profits compared with the previous year.

Invoicing was also higher compared with 2020–21, and thanks to improved efficiency in operations and in the company’s processes, profits stabilised despite higher raw material and energy prices. The merger of the Belgian operation with the head office in the Netherlands was completed during the year, and the sales team was expanded to better meet the high market demands. A new long-term rental agreement was signed with the owner of the premises in Zaltbommel to secure continued operation at the current central and best location by the A2 motorway.

Continuous improvements to the company’s processes create added value and peace of mind for our customers, as well as prosperity for the Be-Ge Group and its employees.

The company participated in several different driver seat projects, both in the train segment and with different OEM customers. This, combined with an increasing number of enquiries for after-sales market installation of customised seats, creates the conditions for further growth in the future.
