Tacx B.V.
Tacx B.V. is a private limited company (besloten vennootschap) registered in the Netherlands under Chamber of Commerce (KvK) number 27072269. The company was incorporated on 1 May 1966 and is registered at De Boeg 2, 2343 HK Oegstgeest. Its trade-register record shows an active status.
Tacx B.V. designs, manufactures and distributes indoor cycling trainers, together with related training software, accessories and tools for cyclists. Its registered business activities cover the manufacture of sports articles and bicycles, and the wholesale of bicycles, bicycle accessories and metal goods. The company’s trade-register filing reports between 11 and 20 employees.
Tacx originated as a family-owned manufacturer before becoming part of Garmin Ltd. (Nasdaq: GRMN), the Switzerland-domiciled positioning-technology group. Garmin announced a definitive agreement to acquire the Tacx business on 12 February 2019 and completed the transaction on 2 April 2019. Garmin Ltd.’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended 28 December 2024, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on 19 February 2025, lists Tacx B.V. among its subsidiaries. Garmin sells Tacx-branded indoor trainers within its Fitness product segment, alongside cycling computers and power-meter pedals; Garmin’s public filings do not break out Tacx B.V.’s individual revenue or headcount separately from that segment.
On 24 August 2020, a related entity named Tacx Onroerend en Roerend Goed B.V. (KvK 27114379) — the company identified in Garmin’s original 2019 acquisition agreement — merged into Tacx B.V., according to the Dutch trade register.

Shareholders
Shareholders of Tacx B.V.
No shareholder register is publicly published for Tacx B.V. in the Dutch Chamber of Commerce (KvK) trade register. Dutch private limited companies (besloten vennootschappen) are not required to disclose their shareholder list in the standard public register extract, and no filed accounts schedule listing shareholders was located for this entity. Corporate-group evidence indicates that Tacx B.V. is currently controlled within the Garmin Ltd. (Nasdaq: GRMN) corporate group: Garmin Ltd.’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended 28 December 2024, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on 19 February 2025, lists Tacx B.V. as one of its subsidiaries. This followed Garmin’s acquisition of the Tacx business, announced 12 February 2019 and completed 2 April 2019. A commercial data aggregator (companyinfo.nl) names "Garmin Nederland B.V." as a shareholder of Tacx B.V., but the same listing simultaneously showed inconsistent and implausible additional shareholders, including Tacx B.V. itself; because this specific claim could not be corroborated in an official filing, it is treated here as unverified rather than confirmed. A now-lapsed GLEIF Legal Entity Identifier record for Tacx B.V. (LEI 724500V5IC4ZLVNRLI71), last updated 24 September 2019, showed its then direct and ultimate parent as J.H.J.- en P.A. Tacx Holding B.V., reflecting the pre-acquisition, family-holding ownership structure; this record predates confirmation of the Garmin transaction in LEI data and does not reflect current ownership.
Data availability
Shareholder and beneficial-ownership disclosure for Dutch private limited companies is Not public in the standard KvK trade-register extract, and no beneficial-ownership filing for Tacx B.V. could be independently verified for this profile. Ownership within the Garmin group is inferable only indirectly, through Garmin Ltd.’s own U.S. securities filings identifying Tacx B.V. as a subsidiary, not through a Dutch shareholder or UBO filing.

Data availability
Corporate-linkage information for Tacx B.V. is Partial: the ultimate parent is verified through Garmin Ltd.’s own U.S. securities filings, but the Netherlands does not publish a public shareholder register for private BVs, so the immediate parent and exact ownership or voting percentages could not be independently confirmed for this profile.
