Common in the Netherlands, occasionally seen in Western Europe. Pretty rare in the USA.
Bakfiets.nl has one like that - https://bakfiets.nl/eng/modellen/cargotrike/large/
Fietsfabriek has a few - https://www.defietsfabriek.nl/nl/nl/81/modellen
Clevercycles imports some Dutch-style bikes into the USA; they may be able to get something like that if they don't have one already - https://clevercycles.com/
Also ............ Bring $$$$.

The sculpted tub of the Kangaroo is very distinctive.
Cool trikes in any case.
