Three in a row for Van Keulen Transport
23-02-2024
A household name for more than 80 years!
The Zeeland family business was founded in March 1943 by Adriaan van Keulen in Biggekerke and celebrated its 80th anniversary in 2023.
The small-scale transport company, which moved from the agricultural village to the Arnestein industrial estate in Middelbrug in 1996, was continued by his son Wim van Keulen. The third generation is now at the helm, with Edwin van Keulen, together with partner Erik Breure.
In 2023, the horse and cart delivery service has evolved into a versatile logistics service provider with 80 permanent employees and a fleet consisting of 65 tractor units and 120 trailers. In addition to all kinds of agricultural transport, transport of special constructions, waste, pallet and groupage transport, van Keulen Transport increasingly provides the transport of sea containers, which often arrive in the port of Vlissingen East.
Two loyal names in the port of Vlissingen-Oost are Chiquita and Seatrade, with which Van Keulen Transport has had a good relationship for several years. This is how the idea arose to create a set of models with the DAF XG FTP as a basis and behind it a tautliner and container chassis equipped with a Chiquita and Seatrade container. The end result is beautiful, WSI thanks you for the great collaboration.
