Jorden Logistics B.v.

What Jorden Logistics B.v. does

Jorden Logistics B.V. is a privately held, family-owned freight forwarder headquartered in Rotterdam, Netherlands (Kiotoweg 70D, 3047 BG), operating since 1999 under 100% ownership of Dennis Stolk since 2024. The company provides integrated international logistics services — sea freight, European road transport (groupage to full loads), warehouse storage and distribution, and customs clearance — to European importers and distributors of building materials, natural stone, steel coils, and wood. Its differentiated offering is specialized natural stone logistics: container unloading of slabs and granite blocks up to 16 tonnes using on-site crane and forklift equipment, combined with door-to-door transport on A-Frames to final destinations across Europe. The company holds AEO (Authorised Economic Operator) certification since 2018 (certificate NLAEOF 0002418), enabling simplified customs procedures, and also offers Limited Fiscal Representation for non-Netherlands EU companies.

The business model is transaction-based across multiple revenue streams: (1) freight forwarding fees on sea and road transport, leveraging a worldwide agent network that consolidates shipments for competitive rates; (2) professional services revenue from customs clearance declarations and fiscal representation; (3) managed services revenue from warehouse storage, transshipment, loading/unloading, packing, sorting, labelling, and distribution. Pricing is quote-based with no public rates; fuel surcharges are published weekly (28–31% in mid-2026). Customer acquisition is sales-led through a multilingual website (Dutch, English, German), direct contact form, and personal relationship-driven outreach. The company operates with a lean team of 7 full-time staff handling ~15,000 shipments annually for 150+ clients across 30+ worldwide destinations. There are no institutional investors, no funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no parent company affiliations.

Comparable mid-market European footprint and Rotterdam-adjacent operations, though specialising more in road transport.
