Vetus, a developer of complete boat systems, has appointed Kevin Theuns as manager of sales for the Netherlands and Belgium, effective from 1 April 2024.

Theuns will spearhead the Dutch firm’s sales efforts in these crucial markets, working closely with the sales team to further enhance Vetus’ market share and presence.

Theuns will manage the middle and southern parts of the Netherlands and Belgium, and the northern part of the Netherlands will be managed by Vetus’ office in Grou.

Theuns first joined Vetus in 2019 and has held several roles, including product sales manager at Thruster Systems and sales manager at OEM Netherlands.

Theuns says: “The Netherlands and boats are inextricably linked. It’s inspiring to witness the vibrant water sports culture in the Low Countries every day. Vetus holds a pivotal role as a developer of comprehensive onboard systems, and I am committed to expanding our footprint further.”

“We are excited to welcome Kevin to his new position and are confident in his ability to drive success in these key markets,” said Thijs Boegheim, director sales EMEA at Vetus. “His leadership and strategic insights will undoubtedly propel Vetus to new heights.”

Last month, Vetus committed to maintain its prices across the board until January 2025. The firm, which is marking its 60th anniversary this year, says it remains committed to providing its products at ‘reasonable prices’ despite economic challenges, including rising inflation rates and escalating costs across materials, transportation, energy and labour. Vetus says that in addition to the price freeze, it has also reduced prices on around a third of its products.
