R&M Forwarding has a special floor for packing and repacking of 3,500 m2 that includes a new citrus washing line, in which we meet the demand of large unloaders from South America and South Africa, for example. We also have at our disposal a complete packaging line for blueberries, which will be packed from bulk into all possible packaging for European supermarkets.”

“Everything revolves around fast loading and unloading times, as are demanded in our industry. This means that we work with drive-in racks, storing pallets up to three high, and in addition we provide extensive pre-cooling areas and sufficient loading docks,” said Rien. “With all the necessary certifications such as AEO and IFS, we can completely unburden our customers so they can concentrate on their own business.”

“The choice of Dutch Fresh Port, as the largest the largest specialized agro/fresh/food cluster in the Netherlands, was not difficult for us, according to general manager Rien van Beek. Many customers are located nearby and, in addition, the location is logistically excellent: central in the Netherlands, close to the Port of Rotterdam and conveniently located to highway A15, A16 and A29.”

Schiedam is a historic city in the province of South Holland. Known for its windmills, canals and distilleries, Schiedam offers its visitors a unique cultural experience. The neighbouring city of Rotterdam is the second largest city in the Netherlands and a major international port.

Its modern architecture, vibrant cultural scene and diverse business activities make Rotterdam an attractive destination for tourists, businesspeople, and conference delegates alike. With its proximity to Rotterdam and good transport links, Schiedam offers an extremely attractive investment environment for hotel development, as recent reports by CBRE and Colliers have shown.

The hotel project is situated in a prime location in the heart of the SchieDistrict development area, within an approximately 1.3 km² development of residential and commercial properties adjacent to the railway station and the A20 motorway.

The hotel is in the immediate vicinity of the railway and metro station, offering direct connections to Rotterdam city centre and Rotterdam the Hague Airport. As the first hotel of the Intercity “Next Gen” concept, it also represents a milestone for the brand and will point the way for future hotel developments.

The IntercityHotel forms the heart of the “Ellipse Park” business area developed by the Schiphol Area Development Company. The 60,000 m² business park is one of the most sustainable development projects in Europe. The development focuses on educational and health-related services such as rehabilitation and prevention, but will also include temporary housing, office space and retail areas.

The new Intercity Hotel is located in the Schiphol Trade Park adjacent to Amsterdam Schiphol Airport, the third largest airport in Europe with more than 200 direct connections worldwide. The A4 motorway, less than 1 km away, leads to the major cities of Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam and to the Belgian border. The nearby Hoofddorp railway station serves the greater Amsterdam area, including Amsterdam Central Station.

This logistics centre in the heart of Aalsmeer will comprise a total building floor space of approximately 250,000 m². With 80,000 m² of logistics space and 170,000 m² housing other functions such as a hotel, light industry, offices, retail and a wide range of other facilities, the campus will be the new place to work, do business, learn, stay overnight and relax. The new 500-room hotel, designed in the style of the former greenhouses in the area, will be the landmark of the logistics area/industrial estate.

The plans for the project were unanimously approved by the Aalsmeer municipal council on 29 September 2022. The development of the entire site is expected to take 5 to 7 years. On 28 October 2022, Green Square Logistics I was completed as the first sub-project of the development. Necron Group AG is financing and developing the high-quality Green Square Logistics II-III project.

The city of Aalsmeer is located in the centre of the Amsterdam metropolitan area, a stone’s throw from Schiphol Airport. It is the world’s largest trade and knowledge centre for floriculture and home to the world’s largest flower auction, Royal FloraHolland, with a daily trade volume of more than 20 million flowers and plants from the Netherlands and 50 other countries.

Extensive attention to sustainable construction means an eye for reducing the ecological footprint within this project. It also makes a generous column spacing possible of 22.8 m and a free height of 12.2 m. The logistics building with a length of 96 meters, width of up to 137 meters and a height up to 14 meters offers 12 loading- and unloading areas and a floor load of 5 t/m². The building is therefore extremely flexible in use possibilities.

The attractive location between Rotterdam and Antwerp on the A29, about 20 minutes from the port of Rotterdam, makes Hoeksche Waard an important hub for last-mile distribution to the Rotterdam metropolitan area and the entire South Holland province, the most densely populated and highly industrialized area in the Netherlands.

Dordrecht has been a hub for the transport and trade of goods since the 12th century due to its location at the “3-river point”, where the Beneden Merwede arm of the Rhine splits into the Noord, the Oude Maas and the Dordtsche Kil. Today, Dordrecht and the surrounding areas of Rotterdam and the Randstad are home to Europe’s largest logistics, smart industry, and maritime network.

Its location approximately 20 km southeast of Rotterdam, directly on the A16 with connections to the N3 and A15, makes the Dordrecht Logistics Center an excellent hub for deliveries to the Randstad and West Brabant regions. A population of 1.3 million can be reached within 30 minutes, while the proximity to Dordtse Zeehaven, the Alblasserdam terminal and the ports of Rotterdam, Moerdijk and Antwerp provide convenient access to major global trade routes.

Logistics Center Deventer is strategically located at one of the largest inland ports in the Netherlands, just off the A1 and E30 motorway and 5 minutes from the A50.

It is easily accessible by public transport, and the N348 conveniently connects it to Deventer and its 100,000 residents. The outstanding location, with access to Europe’s main transport routes, makes this distribution center the ideal hub for the supply of goods to the Netherlands and the Europe as a whole.
