Bleckmann is strategically expanding with the goal of supporting and driving its future growth, but definitely with the future in mind. In each of the three projects, the company has made significant investments to improve the sustainability of the sites. For example, LED lights are being installed and combined with motion sensors to further reduce energy consumption. And through the use of mezzanines and the most optimal rack structures, the logistics specialist is making the best use of the sites’ surface areas.

Bleckmann is no rookie in the global field of logistics and Flanders is both historically and geographically a crucial location for the Belgian-Dutch firm. In 2020, the company opened a distribution warehouse in Ghent for British e-commerce brand Gymshark. Their tight partnership even earned them a joint nomination for Flanders Investment & Trade’s 2021 Foreign Investment of the Year Trophy.

And there’s a lot more where that came from, as the leader in supply chain management solutions is planning to complement its nearly 300,000 m² of operational space in Belgium at MG Crosswoods, a brand new carbon-neutral distribution center in Kruisem, near Ghent.
