De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V.
De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V. is a private limited company (besloten vennootschap) registered in the Netherlands under Chamber of Commerce (KvK) number 01109630. Its registered office is at Stranwei 6, 8754 HA Makkum, in the municipality of Sudwest-Fryslan, and its trade register record shows an active status, with registration dating from 2005.
De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum operates a shipyard specialising in the construction, repair and outfitting of large custom-built motor yachts, together with related shipbuilding, ship-hire and ship-trading activities. Dutch industry classification (SBI code 30110) places the company under the construction of ships and floating structures. The Makkum yard began operating in August 2005 on a site used for shipbuilding since the early twentieth century, and by 2019 had expanded to two covered dry-dock halls, reported at roughly 110 and 120 metres in length, allowing simultaneous new-build and refit work on vessels well over 75 metres in length. Yachts completed at the yard are marketed under the Feadship brand, a collaboration among Dutch shipbuilders producing large custom superyachts.
De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V.’s registry record also lists a secondary activity code (78202) for the temporary provision of staff, alongside its core shipbuilding activity.
An active KvK registration does not by itself confirm that the company is currently trading, and no company-level revenue or employee figures specific to this legal entity could be independently verified from official filings at the time of research (September 2026).

Shareholders
Shareholders of De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V.
No shareholder register or beneficial-ownership filing for De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V. (KvK 01109630) was located through publicly accessible sources as of September 2026. The Dutch Trade Register (Handelsregister) does not include a private limited company’s full shareholder list in its free or standard public extract, and the number, identity and shareholding percentages of De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V.’s shareholders were not disclosed in the sources reviewed.
Secondary reporting on the wider De Vries shipbuilding business (the "De Vries Group", which includes the separately registered Aalsmeer-based entity Koninklijke De Vries Scheepsbouw B.V.) describes that business as family-owned. This description could not be confirmed as applying specifically to the shareholding of De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V. itself, and is not presented here as shareholder information for this legal entity.
Data availability
Shareholder and UBO information for this company is classified as Not public: the Netherlands’ commercial register does not make BV shareholder registers freely searchable online, and no reliable, entity-specific ownership disclosure was found. This should not be read as evidence that the company has no shareholders.

Officers
Directors and officers of De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V.
Company-register data reported by Company.info identifies one corporate officer for De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V.: De Vries Onroerend Goed Makkum B.V., a Dutch legal entity, recorded as acting in a director (bestuurder) capacity since 2005. Dutch law permits a legal entity to hold a director role; this entity is identified here as a corporate officer, not a natural person, and its own directors were not researched as part of this profile.
The same source indicates that a further three natural persons and/or legal entities hold registered authority in connection with the company, but does not disclose their names, exact roles or appointment dates in the publicly accessible content reviewed. No individually named director could be verified against an authoritative registry source with sufficient confidence to distinguish that person from others sharing the same name; unverified references in trade press and social media to specific named individuals associated with the Makkum yard have therefore been omitted from this overview.
Because the underlying registry extract could not be fully accessed, this overview reflects a partial view of officers as of the September 2026 research date, and it is not possible to confirm whether any of the three unnamed authority-holders have since changed.
Data availability
Officer information for this company is classified as Partial. The Dutch Trade Register publishes a company’s current officers, but a full extract naming all officers, their appointment dates, nationality and country of residence was not accessed; nationality and residence are not disclosed in the sources reviewed for any officer of this company.

Group Structure
Group structure of De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V.
De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V.’s own official website (feadship.nl) identifies the company as one of the "De Vries Group" shipbuilding companies, alongside the original De Vries yard in Aalsmeer, operated under the same De Vries family shipbuilding business. No official Dutch registry filing setting out a formal parent/subsidiary relationship or ownership percentage between De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V. and Koninklijke De Vries Scheepsbouw B.V. (the Aalsmeer entity) was located in this research, so the relationship is presented as a verified commercial and operational affiliation rather than a confirmed shareholding structure.
Yachts built at the Makkum yard are marketed under the Feadship brand. Feadship is not itself a separate legal entity but a long-standing cooperative arrangement between two independently owned Dutch shipbuilders – Koninklijke De Vries Scheepsbouw B.V. and Royal Van Lent Shipyard B.V. – together with a shared design office, De Voogt Naval Architects. Royal Van Lent Shipyard B.V. was reported to have been acquired by LVMH in 2008; no evidence was found that this transaction extended to Koninklijke De Vries Scheepsbouw B.V. or to De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V., and no corporate link between De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V. and Royal Van Lent Shipyard B.V. or LVMH could be verified.
No verified direct or indirect subsidiaries of De Vries Scheepsbouw Makkum B.V. were identified. Information reflects public sources reviewed in September 2026.

Data availability
Group-structure information for this company is classified as Partial: commercial affiliation with the wider De Vries Group and the Feadship brand collaboration is confirmed through the company’s own official website and consistent independent secondary sources, but Dutch public registry sources accessed for this research did not provide ownership percentages, a formal parent designation, or a full subsidiary list for this specific legal entity.
