Origin

Where it all began...

In 2009, Nikos van der Laan founded the company Convins. He felt that telemarketing could be better: more transparent. Sales become easier when the risk no longer lies with the customer and the customer knows exactly where he stands. This idea was worked hard on. While the awnings in the first building - the old tax office in Apeldoorn - closed at 4 p.m., work went on after that. First in a small office space, later on two floors full of enthusiastic colleagues.

Office two: Utrecht

At Zonnebaan 39 in Utrecht, we opened our second office. Convins was experiencing a nice growth in the number of projects. Naturally, these had to be carried out - and that required additional colleagues. Fortunately, the Utrecht location was large enough to accommodate that growth. With new colleagues on board, we were able to take further steps.

Farewell to the old tax office

Convins grew so fast that the old tax office at 41 Hoofdstraat in Apeldoorn became too small. A new office space was sought and found. In 2018, we moved into the building at Wagenmakershoek 9 in Apeldoorn - with better facilities for both colleagues and clients.

From Zonnebaan 39 to number 33

The building in Utrecht also eventually became too small. In 2021 we moved to Zonnebaan 33, directly behind our old premises. This move allowed us to move forward again. The building in Utrecht - like Apeldoorn - has a gym and better facilities for colleagues. It was also a real upgrade for our clients, with more space for client meetings on location.

Crossing borders

In 2022, we were celebrating: Convins was celebrating 12.5 years. But that was not the only reason to celebrate: we crossed the border and opened our office in Valencia. This way we offer colleagues the opportunity to combine their work with living abroad. By investing in colleagues, we continue to contribute to the growth of our clients.

Farewell to the Wagenmakershoek

Our success and continued growth again called for change. We moved from Wagenmakershoek to Wapenrustlaan in Apeldoorn - premises with more space and better facilities. It means another step forward, with plenty of opportunities to realize our ambitions and receive customers even better.

Expansion in Spain

In addition to our Valencia office, we expanded our presence in Spain with a second office in Alicante. A wonderful place to further grow our team. Alicante is now our fourth office - a milestone we are proud of!
