Once started as a local Dutch and Belgium logistics provider for companies in the fashion industry, we have grown into an international logistics company serving many renowned brands across various consumer goods industries.
We leverage our experience and knowledge built over many years, passed from team members to team members, and expanded our activities ever since. Despite our growth and substantially larger business size, we have always kept our spirit of an agile entrepreneur, drive to excel, passion for logistics and culture of putting people first ... since 1862.
