The French go Benelux
France-based contract logistics group ID Logistics has taken over 100% of GVT Transport & Logistics, the transport and logistics division of GVT Group of Logistics, which was founded in the Netherlands in 1957.
In terms of importance, Benelux is the third logistics market in continental Europe, after Germany and France, and the port of entry for many industrial and retail customers.
GVT Transport & Logistics provides warehousing, road transport and last-mile delivery services. The division named BTT, which offers multimodal container solutions, is not part of the transaction and will be operated separately by GVT Group of Logistics.
GVT Transport & Logistics manages twelve sites, employs more than 750 professionals, rents 200,000 sqm of warehouses and has a fleet of 285 trucks in the Netherlands and Belgium. Its main logistics campus is located in Tilburg. (sh)
