History
After over 20 years of experience in IT, we started Dutch IT Supplier.
Over the years, there were so many moments where we said to each other, “What if we started our own company so we could control all the processes ourselves? Then we could exceed our customers’ expectations even more”. We were confident that our approach was perfectly suited to the type of customers we wanted to serve. So, in February 2021, we decided to put our words into action and start our own company.
