The Dutch Sport Horse Traders Association
(VSN), founded in 1982, has over 60 selected members. They are all
prominent, internationally oriented sport horse traders. They are
specialized in the purchase, sale and training of sport horses at all
levels and in every discipline. The VSN-members have formed a
collaboration in order to serveit (international) clientele optimally,
efficiently and reliably. As a result of their cooperation a high number
of sport horses can be offered for sale, which increases clients’
options.
Many first-rate international sport horses have found their way to all
parts of the world via VSN members, varying from jumping horses,
dressage horses, eventing horses to four-in-hand horses.
The VSN members have expertise and the necessary contacts for all forms
of transport to any country, and will take care of all accompanying
export documents.
The VSN mediates in matters concerning the sport horse trade and the
authorities such as the Ministry of Agriculture, the Veterinary Board
and the the
Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority.
The VSN also cooperates with the equestrian breeding organizations and
the equestrian sports organizations and is one of the founders of the
Federation of Dutch Equestrian Entrepeneurs (FNHO).
Finally, every autumn, the VSN organises a competition in which
three-year-old sportinghorse, registered with the NRPS or KWPN may be
entered. The VSN Trophy has gained a permanent reputation amongst
breeders, traders and other persons from the equestrian sports world as
a good opportunity to display their young, talented sport horses and to
test their capacities. |
