The new spacious site covers an impressive 71,980 square meters and offers advanced logistics solutions. One of the key features is the 12,000-square-meter cross-dock, specially equipped for inbound and outbound groupage shipments from the Road division, as well as regional domestic distribution. In addition, the facility features a spacious 15,750-square-meter warehouse with space for approximately 28,000 pallets.

“This move allows us to optimize our processes and serve our customers even more efficiently,” said Nick van Loon, Director of Rhenus Road Netherlands. “With all activities under one roof, we are taking an important step in our sustainable and innovative future.”

Sustainability and well-being are at the heart of the new site, which meets both BREEAM and WELL certifications. This underlines Rhenus' commitment to environmentally friendly and people-oriented solutions in the logistics sector. In addition, the facility is equipped with state-of-the-art security measures, such as a sprinkler system and zone-based camera surveillance, ensuring the security of goods and operations.

Sustainability milestones

The new facility is leading the way in sustainability, including one of the first electric truck loading docks. The move brings all employees in Venlo under one roof for the first time, further enhancing internal cooperation and efficiency.

Although the official opening is scheduled for Q1 2025, Rhenus Road Venlo will be fully operational as of 7 October 2024.
