✨Time flies when you’re having fun - 10 Years RP Rides 🎉
April 25, 2014, the day that I walked into the Chamber of Commerce, armed with just a dream and a lot of determination. My strategy, become a business owner in the attractions industry providing technical design.
I still remember one of the first engineering projects, working on an old Hully Gully. Then in 2016, after a great internship, I got my first roller coaster design job and gained a lot of knowledge for what later became RP Rides sales agency. After the opening of the first coaster in 2018, other ride manufacturers knocked on the door too. 🎢
In 2020 during the lockdown, I decided to revamp RP Rides with a fresh business strategy and a new look. By the end of 2021, I launched RP Rides 2.0 as a sales agency focussing on the sales of amusement rides starting with the Ferris wheels from Reuzenrad Lamberink.
In 2022, Imagic concepts became part of my portfolio and I took a leap and went all-in on RP Rides, leaving my part-time job behind. It was scary but one of the best decisions I’ve made.
Then in 2023, the first sold Ferris wheel was opened in the USA. And by the end of 2023, HAFEMA Water Rides GmbH joined our lineup. 🎡💦
😰It hasn’t all been smooth sailing, honestly far from that. All these major milestones came with a lot of bumps along the way, rejections, bad decisions, and lack of experience. But they brought me to where I am today.
10 years RP Rides wouldn’t be possible without the support of all my partners, clients, industry friends and family.❤️
💡For those still doubting to start their own company.. just start because the perfect moment will never come.
