Bos develops and delivers machines, preferably with an innovative edge, for the professional user in ditch and roadside maintenance and earthmoving and land levelling. In doing so, we strive to offer the client a total solution because they are the ones who need to earn their living with it. And innovative in this context means: not standard but a bit more, a bit different, a bit new. That’s the challenge. And that, in short, is the Bos philosophy.

Our biggest clients come from the contracting industry. For example, the construction of roads or sports fields. The machines we deliver are soil tillage equipment and bulldozers. We also deliver machines for ditch and roadside maintenance, bought by municipalities or water boards, but mostly by contractors and the contracting industry.

VandinterSemo operates in seed cultivation, seed trade and seed breeding. And although a large part of our turnover is achieved through the seed trade and the cultivation of seed on commission, we are deeply committed to the breeding of nematode-resistant green manures. It was 1914 when the founders Zwaan and De Wiljes started their business in seed production and seed trade in Scheemda, Groningen. More than 100 years later, the company is known as Vandinter Semo and has become a significant producer and processor of seed in the Netherlands and far beyond. And although seed production and seed trade remains an important core activity at Vandinter Semo, the range has been extended to include seed cleaning, seed coating and seed packaging. Moreover, Vandinter Semo has built a unique reputation as a breeder of cruciferous vegetables.
