Looking back on 2024: A year full of challenges and growth

The past year brought many challenges due to rising costs in various areas. Nevertheless, we at Trippaers Transport managed to move forward and continue to expand our services. Discover in this newsletter our key developments of 2024 and our plans for 2025.


Our most important projects of 2024

Start with ISO Tank rides

Thanks to our ISO Tank rides, we can now transport liquids, which is a valuable extension of our services for our customers.

Strong growth in the on-board forklift department

Our trailers with on-board forklifts experienced a strong increase in use. This success motivates us to continue growing this department in 2025.

Expanding our warehouse capacity

We increased the capacity of our warehouse and welcomed an additional warehouse manager. This enabled us to manage and expand our warehousing operations more efficiently.

Investments in renewal

We added new environmentally friendly Euro 6 tractors to our fleet, along with several trailers and container chassis.

Growth of our freight forwarding

Thanks to the efforts of our sales and freight forwarding team, our sales in this department grew. This shows that our personal approach and efficient service are appreciated.

Local anchoring in Genk

We submitted the environmental permit for the construction of our new warehouse (+ 2500m²) and truck parking in Genk. Construction will start in 2025. This is in line with our vision to continue investing sustainably and locally in infrastructure.

Outlook for 2025: Growing and innovating together

2025 promises to be a year full of new opportunities and projects that will enable us to serve our customers even better.

Growth of the on-board forklift department

After the success of 2024, we remain committed to further expanding our on-board forklifts business. This will allow us to respond even more flexibly to the needs of our customers.

Investing in electric trucks

We are currently in negotiations to purchase our first electric truck, which may be added to our fleet in mid-2025. This is an important step in our pursuit of a more sustainable future.

Expansion of our warehouse and offices

This expansion provides additional storage capacity as well as new facilities and relaxation areas for our drivers. In addition, we are also providing additional parking spaces.

Partnership and implementation of Trimble and Qargo TMS

As of Q2 2025, we are implementing the Transport Management System (TMS) Qargo and Trimble. This will allow us to offer our customers an even better service, such as automatic notification of arrival times and improved trip planning. We can also link the customer's ERP with our TMS.


An industry full of opportunities

Although 2024 was not easy, we strongly believe in the opportunities 2025 holds for us.

 

With targeted investments, a focus on sustainability and innovation and a strong team, we will continue to build a future in which we can best serve our customers and partners.
