Built on Experience.
Driven by Ambition.

Founded in 2015 by Carlos Assies, Colsulting bridges the gap between complex international challenges and practical solutions. We are the architects of your global journey.

Our Story

From Rotterdam to the World.

What started as a management consultancy in the Netherlands has grown into a global operation with boots on the ground in Spain, Colombia, and the USA.

"We believe that true consultancy isn't just about giving advice; it's about engineering results."

Whether it's moving a machine production line across the ocean or relocating a family to the Caribbean coast, we apply the same rigorous standards of precision, compliance, and care.
