Why Export Matters

When you sell industrial food processing machinery to local UK brokers, here's what typically happens:

  • Your Equipment Stays in the UK - Local brokers resell to other UK food producers - often within months of purchase.
  • Competitors Can Acquire Your Technology - Your proven equipment, setup knowledge, and production capability could end up with direct competitors.
  • Lower Prices for You - UK-only brokers are limited to domestic buyers, reducing demand and the prices they can pay.
  • Market Intelligence Leaks - Equipment specifications can reveal your production methods, volumes, and capabilities to competitors.
  • Creates Direct Competition - Your former machinery could be producing competing products within your own market.

Our Export Solution

  • Guaranteed Export to Netherlands - Every machine purchased from UK sellers goes to our European warehouse network.

  • Higher Prices Through International Demand - Access to 40+ countries means higher demand and better valuations for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I be sure you won't resell in the UK?
It's written into the contract as a legally binding guarantee. Additionally, our entire business model is based on export - we have no UK resale infrastructure or buyer network. We make more money selling internationally.
What if a UK buyer offers you more money later?
The contract prohibits this. Even if offered significantly more, we cannot and will not resell in the UK. Our reputation and business model depend on maintaining this guarantee.
How long after purchase is machinery exported?
Usually within days of collecting the equipment from your site. Some equipment is refurbished before listing, which may extend the timeline, but it remains in Netherlands throughout.
What if my machinery is very specialized - will you find international buyers?
Our Netherlands partners have been exporting food machinery for decades with buyers worldwide. Even specialized equipment finds markets. If genuinely no international demand exists, we'll tell you honestly before purchase.
Do you ever make exceptions to the export guarantee?
No. Never. This is a fundamental principle of our business. No amount of money or special circumstances would lead us to breach this guarantee.
What about spare parts or accessories?
The entire purchase is exported - complete machines, spare parts, accessories, documentation. Nothing stays in UK.
Can UK buyers purchase from your Netherlands partners?
Van Zutphen BV and Industrial Freezing BV sell worldwide, but equipment sourced from UK sellers is excluded from UK marketing. They honour our commitment to UK clients.
What happens if your company is sold or changes ownership?
The guarantee runs with the equipment and is assigned to Netherlands partners upon export. Even if we ceased trading, Van Zutphen BV and Industrial Freezing BV honor commitments.
Can I get a separate non-compete or confidentiality agreement?
Yes - if you have specific concerns about proprietary processes or competitive information, we can discuss additional NDAs or non-compete terms.
