"Van" ususally indicates Dutch orginin (from, of... example is Van Gogh). The word "Van" does not exist in the German language
German equivalent of "van" is "von" (=from, of...)

I do not know who owns the "Van" shoe company... sorry.

I don't know, but volkswagens are. Ask Wolfgang, the German Engineer.
