Home to some of the world’s best builders of both motor and sailing yachts, Northrop & Johnson has opened an office in Holland. The Northrop & Johnson Holland office is perfectly poised to serve the local yachting community and beyond.
At the helm of the new office is office director and yacht broker Derk Jan Rolff who began his career in the yachting industry as a broker with De Valk; he also successfully started the De Valk Antibes office.
In a few short years, he was able to sell many yachts ranging in length between 80 and 160 feet such, as well a couple of new builds, at ship yards were in the Netherlands, Italy and the last was the Turkish built Nomad today called Bartender.
He then moved back to the Netherlands to become director of De Valk International, where he developed sales teams and grew the company on a global scale. He also continued his sales practice and is equally savvy selling motor or sailing yachts.
In 2009, Derk forged out on his own and created Holland Yacht Partners, which specialized in the sales and marketing of Dutch-built superyachts. After a number of successful years, he has decided to join the Northrop & Johnson global team thanks to a long-standing successful relationship.
The Holland office is located at Laren, Ruiterweg 15, Postal Code 1251 ZX. Telephone: +31 0 35 544 71 58
