Vekoma Rides Manufacturing is a Dutch amusement ride manufacturer.

In 2008, Vekoma Rides Manufacturing acquired the Wheels of Excellence range of Ferris wheels from Ronald Bussink, to be handled by a new Vekoma division, Dutch Wheels BV. The Dutch Wheels product range includes the R40, R50, and R60 models, each available in three different types.

Other Vekoma coaster models include Swinging Turns, Enigma, Hurricane, Illusion, Family Boomerang, Tilt Coaster, and powered coasters. There are also many different custom models.

In 2013, Vekoma signed a deal with Idaho-based Rocky Mountain Construction. The agreement allows Vekoma to sell Rocky Mountain Construction's roller coasters outside the North American market.

As of 2012, Vekoma has built over 270 roller coasters around the world.
