Thijs Logistiek

What Thijs Logistiek does

Thijs Logistiek is a privately held Dutch logistics service provider headquartered in Weert, Netherlands, operating across the Benelux with a focus on integrated warehousing, e-fulfilment and transport services. The company was originally founded in 1887 by Johannes Theijs, transitioned through several family ownerships and was acquired by Marius Verschuuren in 2012, who rebranded it from Thijs Expeditie to Thijs Logistiek; his sons Brent and Willem Verschuuren have subsequently taken over operational leadership, with Peet Verbruggen serving as operational director since 2018. Thijs serves B2B manufacturing, wholesale and e-commerce customers, including named enterprise accounts such as FUJIFILM Netherlands BV and Heuts (LKQ Fource), and is differentiated by ADR-class 2/3/8/9 certification for dangerous goods, a PGS 15-certified warehouse with gas fire suppression, and a 2022-built 7,500 m² gasless, circular distribution center equipped with 1,250 solar panels and an electric Volvo truck.

The company's offering is built on three core pillars — Warehousing (with ADR-certified dangerous goods storage), E-Fulfilment (webshop order picking, packing, labeling and shipping) and Distributie & Transport (24-hour Benelux delivery from 1 pallet up to 6m packages). Underpinning these are digital platforms including the E-warehouse inventory system, the multilingual Mijn Thijs Web Order Entry portal, the DHB Control Tower supply-chain visibility platform, the ABC02 CO2 calculation tool and the Smart Driver Coaching telematics app. Through partnerships in the DHB and Teamtrans distribution networks, Thijs accesses 13 distribution centers providing fine-mesh Benelux coverage, with reported metrics of 500,000+ shipments annually, 98% on-time delivery and 30%+ CO2 reduction through network optimization.

Thijs monetizes through transaction-based warehousing, e-fulfilment and transport services priced via custom quotes tied to shipment volume, frequency, ADR handling and contract length, supplemented by recurring warehousing engagements (minimum 10 pallets) and Dutch Expeditievoorwaarden freight forwarding. Go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven, reflecting its family-business identity, with a multi-channel digital footprint (thijs.nl, blog/news, open days, employer branding and direct consultation) and direct fleet distribution supplemented by the DHB and Teamtrans network partnerships. Customers access services through a self-serve portal (Mijn Thijs) with multilingual support and dedicated account management.
