History<br />
<strong>SMIT</strong> <strong>transformers</strong> are installed all over the world. In 1913, Messrs Rosskopf,<br />
Bergsma and Smit established ‘N.V. Willem Smit & Co’s Transformatorenfabriek’<br />
on Groenestraat in Nijmegen. The company started with 38 employees, and it<br />
grew steadily through the years. Other forward integrated businesses associated<br />
with N.V. Willem Smit and Smit <strong>Transformer</strong>s and the transformer industry, such<br />
as Smit Draad, Smit Ovens and Lincoln Smitweld, were also established. All <strong>of</strong><br />
these companies still operate wholly independently. In 2000, <strong>SMIT</strong> became part<br />
<strong>of</strong> the <strong>SGB</strong>-<strong>SMIT</strong> Group. In 2009, the service, maintenance and repair activities<br />
traditionally associated with the Smit <strong>Transformer</strong>s product range relocated to the<br />
harbour with an exclusive quay situated on Energieweg in Nijmegen.<br />
