About us
'Where our profession meets your passion'
Rob van Boxtel Equestrian BV was founded by Rob van Boxtel in September 2009. Rob has been professionally involved in international equestrian sports for many years. After gaining experience in top-level sports at various national and international stables, Rob chose to use his passion and experience to provide professional riders with the right equipment.
It all started very small, in a shed behind his house. Rob regularly loaded the items into a small truck and presented his products at competitions, where he was the first point of contact for international riders and grooms for several weeks each year. Rob also regularly visited various large stables throughout the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany, providing riders and grooms with a suitable collection at their location. Soon, the shed was replaced by a building on Handelsweg in Nijnsel, and the truck was replaced by a larger model.
Meanwhile, Rob van Boxtel Equestrian BV has grown into an internationally operating organization with sales stands at approximately twenty 1*, 2*, 3*, 4*, and 5*-star competitions per year. This allows us to maintain direct contact with professional riders from all over the world. Want to know where you can find us? Check out the competition calendar here.
The mobile showroom drives daily through the Netherlands, Belgium, and Germany to provide large stables with proper advice and a suitable assortment. The mobile showroom allows you to try on and test the items. You will experience the high-quality service of our experienced staff, who will provide you with appropriate and personalized advice. If you are interested in shopping on location with your stable, please contact us to discuss the possibilities.
Through the online presence of horseonline.com, bitspecialist.com and saddlelease.com not only professional but also amateur competition riders can now benefit from the knowledge and tailored assortment for demanding riders.
Bitspecialist
Due to the global demand for horse bits, Rob founded the website 'Bitspecialist' in 2013. Through this platform, Rob was able to share his many years of knowledge and experience worldwide. Soon, 70 to 80 percent of the Dutch and global top riders were part of our customer base. Bits are ordered even in countries like Australia and China. On the website, you will find a range of standard and unique bits of the highest quality, with the opportunity to test them. The bits range from a standard snaffle to a less common double bit. Our experts are happy to help you find a suitable bit for you and your horse and are available with personalized advice.
