Expert Guidance in European Sporthorses
With Beata Zbierowska
Equestrian International, based in Europe, specializes in sourcing top-quality European sport horses for riders and investors. With over 15 years of experience, the company has built a reputation on trust, integrity, and a genuine love for the industry.
Equestrian International's journey began with personal experience importing horses from Europe. This experience taught valuable lessons about who to trust and what to look for. The first import, a beautiful bay GP prospect, arrived with a club foot—a condition the seller claimed happened on the plane. The second import, a stallion, was a disaster. He arrived skinny and sick after double quarantine, only to reveal he was a roarer. The third, a mare, was too marish and sensitive for an amateur rider.
These experiences shaped Equestrian International's approach to diligence and transparency. Seeing horses in person is vital, which is why multiple riders are employed to try and evaluate horses, ensuring each meets high standards.
Equestrian International sources multiple breeds for hunters, jumpers, equitation, eventing, and the pony hunter and jumper divisions. The company works with amateurs and professionals alike, whether they're traveling to Europe or purchasing on video.
The approach is straightforward: horses must have great brains, good conformation, and no soundness issues. And, let's be honest, they should be attractive too—after all, clients will be spending a lot of time looking at them!
Equestrian International partners with breeders and trainers in multiple countries throughout Europe to find the right horse for every client. The goal is to ensure each horse meets the client's exact needs and expectations.
One of the biggest benefits of working with Equestrian International is its expertise in importing horses. The company provides comprehensive support throughout the entire process, making it seamless for buyers.
Equestrian International's business is built on the lessons learned from past experiences. These lessons have been incorporated into every aspect of operations, ensuring that clients never have to go through what was learned the hard way. Only horses that would be personally recommended are offered, and transparency and integrity are paramount in every transaction.
