MARTENS JAN has been active since 1984 and the Belgian State Gazette contains no insolvency or warning signals. The 2025 annual accounts show negative equity (€-667) and a net result of €15k. The figures fluctuate too strongly year-on-year for a reliable trend projection. Its solvency ranks better than 9% of 27619 sector peers (fiscal year 2025). The computed 12-month bankruptcy probability is 0.7% (low).
