NYK Opens New Cross-Dock Warehouse in Herentals - "Herentals is the ideal location for the new cross-dock centre because, not only is it centrally located for a Benelux operation, but it is also close to the parts warehouses of several customers that distribute large volumes of spare parts..."

27/05/10 -- As from May 2010, the Night Distribution division of NYK Logistics North Continent has performed cross-dock operations out of a new warehouse in Herentals, located in the Flanders region of Belgium.

With a surface area of 6,000 m², the available space in the Herentals facility is almost twice that of the previous warehouse, which was destroyed by a fire during the night of 2nd/3rd February 2010. Inside the new warehouse, docks and a loading bay are planned for the unloading of shuttle trucks and the loading of distribution trucks.

"Herentals is the ideal location for the new cross-dock centre because, not only is it centrally located for a Benelux operation, but it is also close to the parts warehouses of several customers that distribute large volumes of spare parts", states Eric Derbaix, business unit manager of NYK’s Night Distribution services. With its extensive network of hubs and platforms, NYK’s Night Distribution service offers possibilities for the distribution of automotive parts and accessories all over the Benelux region and France.
