In the fertile years of the Belgian agricultural sector, the story of Agri-service Hoydonckx began. With a passion for technology and agriculture, Louis Hoydonckx started a modest garage for Volvo tractors in the 1960s. In 1980, he joined forces with Richard M\u00e9lotte to establish the company Hoydonckx bvba. <\/p>\n

This collaboration laid the foundation for what is now a thriving company offering Valtra tractors and a wide range of other agricultural machinery. In 1988, Ronny Plessers entered the scene and brought his expertise and dedication to the growing company. It was a turning point in Hoydonckx\u2019s history. <\/p>\n

In 2000, after a decade of steady growth, Hoydonckx invested in a state-of-the-art company building that still serves as its home base today. Here, the company developed into a leading player in the agricultural sector, with a strong focus on technical competence, customer service and innovation. Our founders have always been at the forefront of the industry, and their vision continues to guide and inspire our company.
