We move you to a better world. Pon’s 125th anniversary: from a small shop to a global player Pon’s history. At the end of the nineteenth century, Mijndert Pon started his company. A small scale family business that sold soap, sewing machines and bicycles. Meanwhile, we have become a global business. All our business moves illustrate our innovative, entrepreneurial spirit, whether we are selling an Opel-sewing machine or our legendary Volkswagen Transporter van. 125 years later we have become one of the largest companies in the Netherlands.

Sustainability is one of the pillars of our strategy: ‘We move you to a better world’. This means that we will be carbon-neutral in the Netherlands from 2020. Sustainability also means that we will launch a number of sustainable solutions: from electric and hybrid passenger cars and business vehicles to electric bikes and excavators. From various energy solutions to the electric or hybrid propulsion of vessels. We will have an impact on the lives of thousands of people and hundreds of businesses. Furthermore, people will always be our point of focus, as we are a family business. Sustainability Making our products and organization even more sustainable. For us, taking care of people and the environment goes hand in hand with great entrepreneurship, and we do so by committing to different sustainable solutions. Innovative products contribute to improving our quality of life and our environment. For example, electric vessels, the design, and development of electric bicycles and solar panels. But also electric cars and smart mobility solutions. For a couple of years now, we share and publish our carbon footprint in the Netherlands.
