  • Our nations manufacture and export a huge number of goods across the EU and beyond. The Netherlands is the EU’s largest beer exporter, but you might be surprised to hear that Belgium exports the most fries. Belgian potato fries are common in both the UK and France, but it’s Dutch fries that are the biggest hit in the UK. These are some of the interesting findings in the Internationalisation Monitor, CBS, which shines a spotlight on exports from both countries. The report highlights the huge and very diverse export market, which reflects our range of customers. Across a broad breadth of industries from components to finished goods, from food to packaging, gardening to interiors we can meet all of your export needs, with road freight products available to accommodate them.

  • We're looking back to celebrate our amazing local teams (as well as colleagues from our UK parent company) who, in August took part in an important sponsored walk. The team raised valuable funds for AZ Zeno in Knokke-Heist in Belgium, one of three sites. Known as Warm Nest, it is a meeting place for people with cancer. While a hospital treats the illness, Warm Nest is there for the whole person. The charity has provided a great deal of support for one of our local team members which is why we all wanted to raise money for this amazing charity. Starting from Warm Nest, Knokke our team walked either 4k, 10k or 20km and these impressive efforts have been match-funded through the Europa 50:50 scheme, which helps our staff to fund raise for charities close to their hearts. The team raised over 1,500 euros thanks to the match-funding of the Europa 50:50 scheme. Congratulations to everyone for their efforts for a great cause. #charity #teamEuropa
