Profit
As a medium sized business, we have an important role to play in society as an employer. If we want to continue fulfilling this role well, we must ensure that our company remains financially healthy.
Continuity is thus priority at Van Rooijen Logistics. As an independent company we are not dependent on external capital investors who have short term visions. Van Rooijen Logistics is a transport company and by combining our clients’ goods flows we ensure the best loading volumes. Our vehicles are always efficiently loaded and this allows us to make significant transport savings in the Benelux.
In summary:
- Savings in mileage by having a garage and petrol station on our own premises.
- The great majority of our fleet consist of euro-4 and euro-5 diesel engines leading to less consumption and cleaner engines.
- Use of rail transportation (reduced road traffic).
- Internal VAL facilities so that there is no transport needed to repackaging companies.
- Smooth warehouse flooring (reduced rolling resistance).
- Use of electric forklift trucks instead of gas forklift trucks.
- One stop shopping ensure better loading volumes and fewer lorries on the road.
- Benelux divided into regions and districts used to determine deliveries and reduce road transportation.
- Innovation in purchasing 5 LZV units (Longer and Heavier Vehicles) so that the loading volume per trip is increased.
- We have our own woods to compensate CO2 emissions
