Cross Docking

Our central 4000 m² cross-docking facility in Herstal has been enabling fast handling and direct transfer of all types of goods, including the handling of goods up to 8 metres in length, since 2018 in order to reduce delivery times and expedite the movement of goods.

This centrally located facility in the heart of Europe allows us to efficiently receive, sort and distribute flows of goods to destinations in the Benelux countries, France and Germany.

This continuous operational readiness means we can respond to customer orders much faster and ensure the rapid turnaround of goods.

Our aim is to effectively minimise warehousing and ensure smooth, fast throughput. This results in numerous benefits for our customers:

• Speed: We achieve significant time savings through short transit times and optimised processes.
• Cost effectiveness: Lower storage costs and improved transport efficiency translate into direct savings for our partners.
• Flexibility: Our flexibility in adapting to specific customer requirements enables us to satisfy the demands of a wide range of goods flows.

We offer our customers bespoke services tailored to their specific needs by integrating specialised warehouse solutions and coordinating supply chains precisely.

Many companies have found it essential to reduce storage volumes and the costs associated with them. This is why our customers' goods remain in the cross-docking zone for less than 48 hours. Cross-docking processes therefore differ significantly from conventional warehouse activities.

Our storage capacities mean that we can flexibly store a wide range of products under optimum conditions. Our versatile storage solutions allow us to efficiently manage goods to ensure they remain in perfect condition and are ready for immediate dispatch when required.

Combining our cross-docking activities with a customised transport service enables us to satisfy a range of specific customer requirements in a highly efficient manner. Whether it's transporting special goods or meeting precise delivery deadlines, we make sure that optimum logistics solutions are provided to support our customers' business objectives.

To summarise, cross-docking at Vincent Logistics delivers advanced storage and inventory management solutions, efficient and accurate handling and fast order processing to meet the demands of modern supply chains.
