U-OCEAN MOVES IN ROTTERDAM

In Rotterdam, U-Ocean has moved to a new location in the city’s harbour.

The address of the new office is U-Ocean Rotterdam, Nieuwesluisweg 202-206, 3197 KV Rotterdam Harbour no. 5037, The Netherlands

The move has been undertaken to ensure a continuing high quality of customer service to clients in Rotterdam, which use our oceanfreight forwarding services.

We originally added a dedicated oceanfreight operation in Rotterdam in 2004 to cope with increasing number of containers that we were handling through the port. U-Ocean Rotterdam is managed by Chris De Haan, who reports to U-Freight Holland MD, Cas Scheij.

The Rotterdam facility is an extension of the existing U-Freight Holland operation, based at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport. That office is backed up by three warehouses, one of 1,500 sq. m. for general warehousing and distribution; another airport warehouse of 250 sq. m. for small parcel and courier distribution; and a third of 500 sq m. where the company’s domestic trucking operation is based.

U-Ocean’s warehousing and forwarding facilities in Rotterdam can be used for the storage and onward transport of cargo and for the stuffing and stripping of containers. Goods can be adapted to the specifications of the customer and the requirements of the country of destination.

Value-added operations in Rotterdam include customs brokerage, fiscal representation, airfreight import and export consolidation, distribution, warehousing, pick and pack, bonded and free storage, A.O.G. shipments, oceanfreight LCL and FCL, trucking, groupage and dedicated, on-board courier and security transport.

U-Freight is determined that we will constantly ensure we are located at the most beneficial locations for both our operations and to serve our client base. This means that in situations like Wuhan and Rotterdam we will invest to accommodate the needs of the market.
