KDS Logistics – International Forwarding & Ferry agents

Who are we?

About us

For more than a quarter of a century KDS Logistics has been a concept in ferry trailer transport between the UK and continental Europe. The company is run by a small team of dedicated specialists that have developed over the years the expertise in these transport routes. We operate from the harbour of Rotterdam, the logistical heart of Northwest Europe. KDS Logistics has established a widespread, sophisticated network of Logistics services over this time, and customers benefit from them as KDS Logistics will always endeavor to provide a solution. Our secret lies in efficient planning of onward transport, both in Europe and the UK mainland.

History and foundation

Foundation

KDS Logistics was founded in 1989 as a department within the firm Kuiper, Van Dam & Smeer. This company had existed since 1756 and derived its name from its founders. In 1994, KDS Logistics became an independent company that was acquired a year later by Karel van Suchtelen and Jeannette Terlouw .

Since its founding KDS Logistics has earned a reputation in the transport of goods between the continent and the United Kingdom and through our years of experience in international transport KDS Logistics has maintained its place in ferry traffic. Also in continental transport there are few countries that we do not serve.
