Benelux Distribution

Prepared for tomorrow’s challenges

Vos Logistics is a pioneer in the transition to a new distribution landscape. That is why we focus on developing our b2b and b2c distribution activities in the Benelux area. Via our own closed network, we specialise in regional and city distribution, focussing on consolidation, digitalisation and sustainability.

Today’s world of transport and logistics is facing several major challenges: rising fuel prices, scarcity of truck drivers, tightening insurance requirements, dealing with repair and maintenance, changing laws and regulations, to name a few. On top of that, the Dutch transport sector finds itself on the verge of an enormous transition, with zero-emission zones announced and the Paris climate agreements forcing a new distribution landscape to emerge. In the transition to this new landscape, the following challenges arise:

  • Sufficient infrastructure
  • Need for investments
  • Consolidating flows into the city
  • Supply chain capacity

At the same time, your company has its own challenges to face. That’s why we offer full-service logistics solutions to suit your needs. We take care of your transport and logistics, so that you can focus on your primary process.

Front runner in efficient logistics

Vos Logistics is ahead of the field in sustainable and efficient logistics and distribution. We proactively work on digitising our processes, consolidating our goods flows and rapidly transitioning to a sustainable fleet.

We operate one of the most finely meshed distribution networks in the Benelux area. From three hub locations we operate daily routes throughout the region. Each town is served daily, so there are no service schedule or fixed days. We deliver to businesses, distribution centres, stores, hospitals and branches of large retailers (garden centres, building supply stores and DIY stores). The Vos Logistics city distribution services even reach into inner cities where only delivery trucks and zero-emission vehicles are allowed. Vos Logistics invests heavily in a zero-emission fleet for city distribution throughout the Benelux area.

Consolidating goods flows

At the base of our reliable distribution network in the Benelux is our crossdock platform, centrally located in the Netherlands, in the middle of the Randstad urban area. At this location, we bundle inbound and outbound goods, creating very efficient flows of goods. Next to that, we operate hubs in Oss and Antwerp, growing and developing toward a multi-hub network. In this way, we warrant daily fine-meshed city distribution for all of the Benelux that is adapted to the requirements of the energy transition: each hub will be a point of departure for all-electric, zero-emission delivery routes.

Your shipments are picked up at your branches directly by our own trucks and drivers, and delivered to addresses throughout the Benelux area, no third parties or subcontractors involved. In this way, we warrant qualitative deliveries and excellent reliability.

We invest continuously in our modern IT systems, offering you easy and convenient registration and labelling of shipments and a paperless operation. Your customers are notified about delivery times for their orders and you can track the status of your shipments at all times.
