During that time, under his leadership, Croon developed into one of the top companies in Aruba focusing on electrical, low voltage, maintenance and HVAC systems- and works. Offering services to clients like the airport, hospital, WEB, high-end hotels and (light) commercial businesses. 

With over 85 colleagues, Wim’s family and friends, the board of director from our parent company in The Netherlands and business relations we stood still by this tremendous milestone on the 23th of October at Papiamento Restaurant. 

Wim shall be succeeded by Rob Timmers. Rob is involved in both Croon Caribe and Croonwolter&dros for the last 5 years and formally took over the position as Managing Director on August 1st 2025.
