FAQ: hub services outsourcing

When is outsourcing hub services a good choice? +

Outsourcing hub services is a good choice when you need an intermediate stop in your supply chain without investing in your own location and infrastructure. Service Pack provides cross-docking, consolidation and distribution from Etten-Leur, combined with value-added services such as labeling and repacking on the same site.

What is cross-docking and when is it useful? +

Cross-docking means goods are received, sorted and immediately forwarded to the next destination without prolonged storage. It is useful when you want speed in the chain, want to reduce transport costs or need to consolidate multiple shipments for efficient transit.

What is the difference between hub services and warehousing? +

Warehousing focuses on storage over a longer period. Hub services are aimed at transit: goods arrive, are processed if needed, and move on quickly. In practice, both services are often combined.

Can value-added services be performed at the hub? +

Yes. The combination of transit with labeling, repacking or rework is what distinguishes our hub. Products are labeled or repackaged on location so they enter the next link in the chain fully compliant.

What types of businesses benefit from outsourcing hub services? +

Hub services are suitable for importers processing sea or air freight, manufacturers needing an intermediate stop, and distributors wanting to consolidate multiple national or European shipments. Our location 30 minutes from Rotterdam and Antwerp makes us a logical hub.

How quickly can shipments be processed and forwarded? +

This depends on the type of processing required. Pure cross-docking without additional services can happen very quickly. When labeling or repacking is linked to the transit, we plan the lead time in consultation with you.
