With its new name, VDL Bus Macedonia DOOEL, the company is entering a new phase of development. This is not merely a change of name, but a clear signal of strategic positioning within a stronger, more integrated, and more innovative organization.

The company becomes part of VDL Bus Group — a newly formed bus division within the Dutch VDL Groep, created through the integration of VDL Bus & Coach and Van Hool. This consolidation brings new momentum to the bus sector by combining decades of experience, top-tier technical expertise, and a strengthened market presence.

Despite the integration, both brands will continue to develop with their distinctive identities, united by a shared vision: creating modern, sustainable, and efficient mobility.

As part of this integrated structure, VDL Bus Macedonia DOOEL remains an important component in bus development and production. Manufacturing activities will continue at the plant in TIDZ Skopje 2, where vehicles under the Van Hool brand will continue to be produced.

This ensures operational continuity, stability for employees, and the retention of industrial know-how and expertise in the country, while also contributing further to economic development.

The Van Hool brand is built on decades of tradition, premium quality, and a customer-centric approach. It is recognized for innovative solutions, precision engineering, and the ability to deliver products tailored to the specific needs of different markets. Its buses stand out for their durability, high quality, and premium design.

The strategy of VDL Bus Group is focused on developing safe, cost-efficient, and environmentally sustainable transport solutions in response to modern challenges and the growing global demand for mobility. At the core of this strategy are people—their expertise, commitment, and capacity for collaboration.

Looking Ahead

With its new identity, VDL Bus Macedonia DOOEL is strengthening its position as a key industrial partner. This transformation marks the beginning of a new chapter—one in which, as part of a larger group, it will continue to jointly shape the future of transport and mobility.
