As partner of the Dutch-based Hudig & Veder Group, Hartel Shipping & Chartering, has awarded Holland Shipyards Group for the delivery of five newbuild coasters of 3.800 DWT.
The new vessels, designed by Conoship, measure 89,42 m by 13,20 m and will have a cargo hold capacity of 5.530 m³ and a tween deck to allow for increased project cargo capacity.
Hudig & Veder can safely be described as a one-stop-shop for logistics solutions. The company specializes in the worldwide transport and storage of various types of cargoes such as (dry) bulk, break-bulk and project logistics. Knowledge and experience are crucial pillars of Hudig & Veder’s services, and are a big part of the success of the company. However, developments in the IT field also play a big part. Examples of this include setting up processes as efficiently as possible, and realizing data links with customers.
The head office in Rhoon is immersed in history. Old ship models and a hall of fame of former directors are the daily tribute to the achievements of the company that has been led by the Fontein family for more than 70 years now. Two years ago, Director Lex Fontein brought Derk Schep on board. With this entrepreneur at the helm, also tried and tested in the port of Rotterdam, the logistics service provider is confidently entering the future. He was triggered by the atmosphere within the company, says Schep, who is the first non-family member, in a long time, now to set the course of Hudig & Veder. The glorious history of Hudig & Veder, for which Jan Hudig and his brother-in-law Cornelis Gebrand Blokhuyzen laid the foundation in Rotterdam, will not be forgotten. But the company, which has grown into a strong partner in international logistics, will continue to grow into the sector in which it has been a resounding name for many years, promises Derk Schep.
