The company’s activities commenced a decade ago by two original founders who had earned their experience working for large internationally operating trading companies, by supplying liquor and tobacco to smaller cruise lines and private yachts making a port of call in the former Dutch colonies. Over time, the founders envisioned a company with more activities, more domestic markets, a larger portfolio also covering fragrances, cosmetics & skincare as well as gourmet niche products. Today, all these activities have been combined into one Dutch based company, The Dutchman Duty Free. Our globally experienced team has participated in managing some of the largest (Dutch) trading companies in the world, and additionally, Duty Free stores on (Dutch) Cruise Lines and the founding partners have been reinforced by professionals with backgrounds within the financial services industry. The team has extensive experience in managing supply contracts, on-board and in-resort pouring, as well as the best technological platforms, accounting and loss prevention systems available.
