"But the expansion of our logistics services meant a WMS became a must," says managing director René van den Heuvel. He got in touch with Vanboxtel. And just a few months later, the brand-new warehouse with WMS was up and running!

More about this case

New frozen storage

As a transport company, Van den Heuvel Logistics did not have its own warehouse for storage. "But our customers in the food sector were increasingly asking for this," explains René. "We decided to provide this extra service and start storing their frozen goods. Several consultants recommended Vanboxtel to us for automating the flow of goods."

Quick start with WMS

"Van den Heuvel Logistics wanted to be operational quickly, despite being in a new warehouse and having no previous experience with a WMS," says Ruud van Gastel, senior account manager at Vanboxtel. "The Vanboxtel-WMS is the perfect solution in that situation. It’s easy to set up, so you can quickly start scanning, recording, invoicing – and monitoring in real time, of course."

Impressive speed

The implementation took very little time. Rene says: "The speed at which everything happened was impressive. The technical preparations, such as implementing the software, barcode scanners, label printers and the temporary 4G solution, were all arranged in close consultation. Within a few months of first contacting Vanboxtel, we moved into our new premises. Naturally, I was a bit worried: will we be able to deliver what we are guaranteeing our customers from day 1? But we did - the operation ran smoothly from the start!"

Extra challenges

Ruud adds: "With a cold store like the one at Van den Heuvel Logistics, there are extra challenges. These include quality checks and processing goods quickly in a cold environment. The Vanboxtel-WMS provides excellent support for this." René adds: "And we are completely ready to grow. The WMS is easy to scale up, so we’re ready for the future."
