SCS Shipping & Logistics Services in The Netherlands
The Netherlands is a leading logistics provider in Europe, with some of the world’s most efficient seaports that provide unparalleled access to the continent.
Rotterdam
The Port of Rotterdam, the largest and busiest port in Europe, is a major hub for distribution. It handles almost 15 million TEU and offers both deep sea and short sea container services, making it an ideal choice for global distribution and logistics.
The port is located 50km from our multi-temperature food-grade warehouse in Breda, which complements the internal distribution of container deliveries, de-stuffing, and EU-wide distribution.
Moerdijk
The Port of Moerdijk, is the fourth largest port and second container seaport in the Netherlands and is a multimodal hub for industry and logistics located between Rotterdam and Antwerp.
Moerdijk offers maximum freedom of choice for shortsea, barging, rail, or road transport, bringing European destinations within easy reach. Our warehousing facility next to the quayside allows for multi-modal delivery services to offload, providing cost savings through minimized internal haulage costs and prompt de-stuffing and palletisation services even at peak times.
We recommend that our customers speak with their shipping agents to see if Moerdijk is an option for them. Our multi-temperature warehousing and distribution services provide ambient, chilled, and frozen groupage / full load services directly from our quayside location throughout the EU.
