About Van den Broek Biljarts

Van den Broek Billiard Factory has been around since 1956 and was founded by Mr. W. van den Broek in Amsterdam West. Starting as a home-based worker behind his house, the company grew and moved to the Jordaan area with a real workshop. In 1963, the company relocated to Van Ostadestraat. Mr. Van den Broek's three sons joined the business, initially focusing on Amsterdam but gradually expanding to the rest of the Netherlands. In 2017, the company finally moved to Almere.

Own Cue Repair Workshop

Cees van den Broek took over the company from his father in 1975. He closely collaborated with Herman Tolsma, who moved to Almere in 1980 and started his own business alongside his work at Van den Broek Biljarts. In 1999, Remco Tolsma, Herman Tolsma's son, took over Van den Broek Biljarts from Cees and Quirine van den Broek. The company continues to operate under the name Van den Broek Billiard Factory. Currently, four people work with us. Since January 1, 2000, we have taken over George Vermeulen Billiard Service and consolidated our three businesses into one location at Van Ostadestraat.

In 2017, we relocated to Almere, where we are now based in De Vaart - Bolderweg 37 A/B, with a 330 m² space. This move has allowed us to expand our showroom and shop significantly. Together with Dave Rooij, Tom Lehman, and myself (Remco Tolsma), we form a complete team ready to assist you.

Our Services and Products

As we increasingly focus on maintenance and service, manufacturing new billiards is no longer one of our main tasks. We are now the main dealer for Gabriels, Brunswick, Clash, Lexor, Heemskerk, and Buffalo billiards. Since 2012, we have also been the exclusive dealer for Montfort Billiards. One unique service we offer is custom-built billiards for cruise ships and combination billiards that can be used for both pool and carom. In addition to our billiard activities, we also supply foosball tables, shuffleboards, table tennis tables, air hockey tables, and everything related to darts.

Billiards on a Cruise Ship

We build pool tables for various cruise lines that remain perfectly level even in winds up to force 5 to 6.
