Van der Mark is a provider of logistic services that carries on where others leave off. We do this by combining modern technology with the best of the past. "A deal is a deal; that was true a hundred years ago when my great-grandfather started the business and I believe this is still true today," says Simon Van der Mark. "Of course we do innovate and implement changes because the transport industry is in constant motion. This requires an ongoing improvement process, maximum flexibility and adaptability so that the services provided are always perfectly in line with the logistic needs and processes of our customers. Everything we do is about transparent communication and mutual respect. We are fully prepared to meet every logistic need of our customers."
From one single dogcart to thousands of HP
In a century's time, VDM has grown into a reputable, (inter)national carrier and warehouse specialist that has become an increasingly important link in the European logistic chain.
Since 2000, Simon Van der Mark - the fourth generation - is at the helm of a well-respected company that is active all around the globe.
For invited guests (employees and their partners) we organised an open house on Saturday morning, June20. The new Logistics Center is not yet finished, but we are well on our way. Even the racking in Hall A has already been installed. Visitors were (partly) dressed in orange, as it is World Cup time. This evening our national team rewarded us with an impressive 5-1 victory over Sweden!
On April 27, an impressive convoy of trucks will once again drive through the Hoeksche Waard. Sonja Buwalda had been a volunteer for many years before joining the board last year. “Every year, I have tears in my eyes when I see all those happy faces.” This year, the start and finish will once again be at Van der Mark.
This three minute movie gives you a good impression of what we do on a daily basis at Van der Mark. You will recognise that we are no actors, but we are used to serve our customers to the max as possible and that is what we want to show to you. Logistics is running through our vanes!
