The project is part of a collaboration between Aprojects, PSA Breakbulk and the Port of Antwerp-Bruges. On 31 January 2023, a cooperation agreement was signed in the Diamond Lounge of Antwerp’s Bosuil soccer stadium. A symbolic location. “The idea for this cooperation originated during a soccer match at the stadium,” says Eric Clonen, CCO at Aprojects. “By constructing a new logistics hub in Antwerp, we want to offer a one-stop-shop concept for our international customers.”

The new logistics center includes two 8,000-square-meter warehouses connected through an overhang of some 4,000 square meters. The roof will be fully equipped with solar panels, and the site will also feature various green areas.

Moreover, the new site can rely on PSA Breakbulk’s heavy-lift infrastructure and is multimodally connected. A deep-sea quay belonging to PSA Breakbulk guarantees that the largest cargo ships will be able to reach the site, while a railroad enables a smooth connection to the European hinterland. “Ensuring carbon-neutral transport to top European destinations is a priority for us,” Clonen points out.
