Klarsboom Handelshuis (Crandan: Klarsboom Handelshuis, literally "Klarsboom Trading House") is a Crandish-Anglian privately held commercial concern based in the Pakhuisstad waterfront district of Johannsessbuurg, in the Free Duchy of Anglien. The firm operates four divisions covering fish processing, timber milling, coastal freight, and dry warehousing, with its principal facilities at the Klarsboom Pakhuis warehouse complex on both banks of the lower Klars estuary. It is the largest privately held commercial enterprise registered in the duchy, with 287 employees and declared revenue of AM 12.5 million in 1755 AN.

The firm was founded in 1714 AN by Klaas Klarsboom (1648 AN–1721 AN) as a single-warehouse fish-processing concern serving the Lac Glaceian inland market through the Klars rail link to Alpreaux. It was expanded by Klarsboom's son Hendrik through the 1720 ANs and consolidated into its modern divisional form by his grandson Wilhelm Klarsboom from 1730 AN onward. The firm operated under Nü Krantisk Repüblik administration from 22.VII.1753 AN until the fall of Johannsessbuurg in VIII.1754 AN and was formally restored to the Klarsboom family by TRCA Chamber of Property and Institutional Crimes restitution order PIC-1755 AN-0042 on 11.II.1755 AN. It resumed processing operations on a limited scale in IV.1755 AN and reached approximately 60 percent of pre-occupation throughput by the close of that year.

Klarsboom Handelshuis holds two prime sub-contracts under Dingo Enterprises's Port of Johannsessbuurg reconstruction prime contract and one direct contract with the Ministry of Finance and Reconstruction for the operation of three controlled-forestry licenses in the inland Klars valley. The firm is widely understood to be the principal native commercial vehicle for Anglian participation in the post-Charter reconstruction program, though it competes for that position with several smaller Crandish and Crandish-Alexandrian merchant houses based in the Oudstad and the Pakhuisstad.
