Based in Belgium, Sarens can trace its roots back to the early 20th century, when Frans Sarens began working with forestry companies, including timber transport with horse and cart in Flanders. Sarens De Coster was incorporated on the 2nd of September 1955, marking the formal establishment of the business.
Sarens has grown from a family run operation to a multinational group with over 70 locations and 6,000 employees worldwide, but remains a 100 percent family owned business.
