In January 2019 IPHandlers will open a brand new center. Across from its current property on the Noordpolderweg in Aalsmeer, the newly established associated company APC Handling b.v. is building the Amsterdam Perishable Center. “With this capacity expansion of more than 50% we will be able to provide our customers with even better service,” says Mark Loos, General Director of Independent Perishable Handlers, i.e. IPHandlers.

The new Perishable Center will comprise ten docks and a surface area of 6,000 m2. This will bring IPHandlers’ total warehouse area to 16,000 m2. “The APC will be a distribution station where the logistical flow of perishables will be more efficient allowing us to serve our customers even better. We will be able to set more different temperature zones. This will mean that our customers, as required, will be able to store their products – such as vegetables, fruit and flowers – for longer and under optimal conditions.”

Unique
IPHandlers is constantly actively innovating and renewing. The company has already undertaken a major refurbishment this year. The entire roof has been insulated with cooling panels so are the distinctive characteristics of our company. The fact that we are dedicated to perishables underlines our commitment to all fresh produce”, Mark says. When you are aware that everything in air cargo is in a hurry then the speed required for perishable handling is the quadrant. That this has everything to do with the shelf life of the product is an understatement. What is in the warehouse today will be completely cleared within one or two days.
There is good cooperation with the inspection authorities such as the Quality Control Bureau and the Netherlands Food and Consumer Safety Authority. Shipment inspections take place in a specially designed area in the warehouse. In this way IPHandlers again offers possibilities distinguishing them from their competitors.
