4. Vision : Becoming The European Network Integrator of F & V
Spain and the Netherlands are the number one and two in exporting fresh produce
Germany and UK are the number one and two in importing fresh produce
A tendency to year round availability changes the focus from export to consumption areas
Focus DailyFresh is distribution to the consumption areas
Strategy is creating Fresh Consolidation Centres

6. Future: European Operations : Supply chain management
Dunkirk Consolidation Centre for UK and NW-Europe will become key in network approach
From consolidator of Dutch Product to full logistics service provider for a wide range of Fruit and Vegetables, year round from Europe and Overseas
A new consolidation centre in Dunkirk will merge flows from Spain, Benelux, rest of Europe and Overseas, rendering tailor made services for customers in the UK and NW-Europe.
From groupage loads to large scale FTL’s, mainly single drops, feeding RDC’s

8. Example Spain: Present inbound network from Spain is not very efficient
Multiple collection stops and multiple distribution stops do not add value to the supply chain
(Primary) Consolidation centres in UK are often required before RDC’s and other clients can be fed
Consignments on pallet-level prohibitively expensive
Seasonal business, no year round supply and
unpredictable transport pricing
Road transport will become increasingly unreliable and
expensive
Traffic jams, toll, strikes
48 hour working week + 12 hour rest period;
longer lead time and higher rates
Driver shortage
Dunkirk

9. Step 1: Consolidation Centre in Dunkirk will improve control, flexibility, responsiveness and costs in the supply chain
Spain:
FTL’s directly from large sources and
high density- collection from smaller sources saves on collection costs
Collection for groupage loads becomes easier, faster and more efficient
Dunkirk:
FTL’s are broken down to RDC requirements
Allocation of product can be done with 12 hrs lead time
Flows from Poeldijk, other Benelux sources and France / Italy be merged
Overseas supply: Merge flows of deepsea & reefer containers into European network
The need for a PCC could be eliminated if Dunkirk can feed directly into RDC’s
Vehicles can do store deliveries on their way back to Dover/Felixstowe

10. Step 2: Consolidation in Dunkirk for UK and NW-Europe is further facilitated by RoRo connection Santander - Dunkirk
Spain:
Shuttle Santander – South Spain decreases dependency on international road haulage
Better control over inbound network
Ferry:
200 reefer trailers can be re-composed, consolidated and sequenced in Dunkirk
Dunkirk:
Dunkirk will become major consolidation point for Spanish produce flows
Dunkirk will become important roundabout for all international produce flows
Dunkirk can become a centre for rolling stock of citrus and overseas product
Dunkirk can consolidate a very large part of total Fruit & Vegetable supplies, year round

11. Not just superb logistic solutions, but also better economics
Saves 1100 kms driving to the UK (less for Benelux and Northern Germany)
No toll (€200,-) and disruptions in France
Extra payload (up to 4 tonnes) for the UK can be added in Dunkirk
Reliable: national collection and haulage in Spain, ferry and distribution all under control of DailyFresh Logistics Europe
Total lead time approx. 54 hours (collection Monday 20.00, arrives in RDC Thursday 02.00; road is not faster under new EU-regulations (2006)
Via road: 2000 km
Via ferry: 900 km
