Carlo Turner, Non-Network & Continent Director of Europa Road, claims the new service represents “a milestone” for the company.
Turner adds that due to post-Brexit friction, it is more important than ever to be prioritising “reliable and seamless” movement of goods.
“Europa Direct is the next service dedicated to providing this, with a team of experts at hand to advise and support customers shipping between the UK, and Benelux and Ruhr regions. The team of 10, led by Manager Marco Riccomini, will be split between our 1Hub in Dartford, the UK’s largest European groupage hub, and our Oostende office, offering support for freight forwarders on both sides of the channel,” says Turner.
The company currently makes 60 unaccompanied trailer journeys across the North Sea every day.
For those who missed it, CEO Andrew Baxter recently discussed a number of pressing matters exclusively with trans.iNFO, including customs, driver markets and the shortcomings of electric trucks.
