Anyone looking to achieve efficient and sustainable logistics today would do well to look beyond the road alone. At Transport & Logistics in Ghent, De Vlaamse Waterweg nv is demonstrating how inland waterway transport helps companies to organise their supply chain in a smarter, more robust and future-oriented way.
As the operator of more than 1,000 kilometres of navigable waterways and an extensive network of locks and bridges, De Vlaamse Waterweg nv plays a key role in the Flemish economy. Every day, the organisation ensures that goods reach their destination safely and efficiently… by water.
During the trade fair, the experts from De Vlaamse Waterweg will demonstrate how companies can make the switch to inland waterway transport a reality. This waterway offers clear advantages: no traffic jams, high reliability and the ability to transport large volumes in a single journey. What’s more, you’ll significantly reduce your logistics footprint, an increasingly important criterion in a sustainability-conscious market.
But how does that apply to your specific situation? That is exactly where De Vlaamse Waterweg nv makes the difference. At stand 1526, you can receive free, independent advice tailored to your freight flows. Together with you, we will examine which inland waterway solutions are feasible and how you can achieve a modal shift step by step.
The message is clear: those who invest in alternative modes of transport today are building a more resilient logistics system for tomorrow. Inland waterway transport is no longer a niche solution, but a strategic choice.
