Our story

A freight forwarder from Rotterdam that does the legwork others will not spend time on, whether it is a food container or project cargo.

Logistics the Rotterdam way

Ouwerkerk Logistics was founded in 2019 on a simple idea: logistics the Rotterdam way. Straightforward, solution-minded, and there the moment it gets difficult. We take on the work other forwarders turn down, because we know how it works. In Rotterdam, Antwerp, Amsterdam and at Schiphol, we work with partners who are willing to do the same.

We have grown every year since, with four permanent staff and almost no active sales. Clients come to us on recommendation and stay because they entrust us with more work. Our trade lanes from India and China and to the United States grew the same way: through clients who brought those needs to us.

Our speciality

We are an all-round forwarder, not limited to a single mode of transport. We specialise in the shipments that stall: complex routings, difficult documentation, and advice on which Incoterm to buy under.

Our ports

Port agent in Rotterdam and Antwerp, airport agent at Amsterdam Schiphol. That lets us deal directly with terminals, shipping lines and handlers, with no party in between.

What we stand for

Guided by Compassion is not about being nice. It is about willingness: taking on the file another will not start, and standing firm when things go wrong.
