Koolwijk Polsbroek

What Koolwijk Polsbroek does

Koolwijk Polsbroek is the operational name under which Koolwijk Holding II B.V. conducts business, a privately held Dutch logistics services firm headquartered in Bergambacht, Netherlands. According to available firmographic data, the company offers logistics, customs clearing, and multimodal transport services, and has been in continuous operation since 1922, placing it among the older Dutch logistics operators in the private mid-market segment.

The business operates across the standard suite of European trade-enablement services — physical transport, customs brokerage, and coordination across transport modes — though the source data does not specify which transport modes (road, rail, inland waterway, sea, or air) constitute the multimodal offering, nor does it disclose specific routes, trade lanes, customer segments, or service-level terms. Headcount is reported in the 101-250 range, situating the firm well above micro-business scale and consistent with a regional Dutch operator running its own transport, warehousing, and customs-administration functions rather than a pure freight-brokerage model.

The revenue model, pricing mechanics, customer roster, go-to-market channels, and technology stack are not disclosed in the accessible source material; the corporate website (koolwijk-logistics.com) returned only a loading/verification page during data collection. Ownership structure, parent/subsidiary relationships, leadership, partnerships, certifications, and regulatory standing likewise carry no documented detail. Accordingly, the description above reflects only what firmographic metadata and the stated service profile directly support, and deeper business-model inferences are deliberately withheld.

Regional players

• Jan de Rijk Logistics: Dutch-headquartered mid-sized logistics provider offering European road transport, contract logistics, and customs services. Comparable to Koolwijk in size, Benelux market focus, and bundled transport-plus-customs offering.
• Nabuurs: Dutch family-owned logistics provider specializing in Benelux and Western European distribution, transport, and warehousing. Comparable to Koolwijk on geography, mid-market European shipper base, and family-owned operating heritage.

Direct peers

• Expeditors: US-listed global forwarder with strong air/ocean and customs brokerage operations in Europe. Directly comparable on multimodal forwarding and customs, with a similar focus on asset-light intermediation rather than fleet ownership.
• DSV: Global transport and logistics provider with a strong European road, air, and sea forwarding franchise plus customs capabilities. Comparable to Koolwijk's multimodal and customs service mix and known for aggressive mid-market roll-ups in Europe.
• C.H. Robinson: Large North American-headquartered global forwarder with significant European operations in multimodal transport and customs. Directly comparable in service mix and customer base (mid-market importers/exporters), though at much greater scale.
• Kuehne+Nagel: One of the world's largest freight forwarders, offering multimodal transport, contract logistics, and customs brokerage across Europe. Directly comparable to Koolwijk's bundled forwarding-plus-customs proposition, but at significantly greater global scale.
• Hellmann Worldwide Logistics: German-headquartered mid-sized global forwarder offering road, air, sea, and customs services, with deep European network density. Closely comparable to Koolwijk on customer segment (mid-market shippers), service portfolio (multimodal + customs), and family-owned operating heritage.

Broad incumbents

• DHL Freight: Deutsche Post DHL's European road freight and customs brokerage unit. A broad incumbent offering overlapping forwarding and customs capabilities at much larger scale, competing with Koolwijk for mid-sized Dutch shipper accounts.
