Advertentie in Algemeen Handelsblad, 7 december 1918.

In 1914, Abraham Holländer, as owner of B. Holländer, together with Karl Heine, founded the Waggonfabrik Heine & Holländer in Elze near Hanover. This was located in an old sugar factory, which the B. Holländer company had bought and converted for its purposes. Walter Holländer was in actual charge of this company for quite some time from 1916.[1]

The factory produced and repaired locomotives, wagons of all kinds, tramcars, buses and trucks, among other things.[2] Heine & Holländer advertised in late 1918 in the Algemeen Handelsblad as a supplier of, among other things, ladder cars[3] and in 1919 in the Nieuwe Rotterdamsche Courant of open and closed freight wagons, tank wagons and refrigerator wagons.[4]

On 31 May 1933, Walter Holländer had resigned his position as manager of the company at Heine & Holländer.[5]
