WDP is constructing a new pharmaceutical warehouse in Zwolle, in the province of Overijssel, the Netherlands. On June 1st, all the involved construction partners gathered to celebrate the start of the construction. VDR Bouwgroep and Bogaerds Architects & Engineers were among the attendees.
Friday 30 September, WDP officially launched the construction works of the brand-new DHL Express Service Center in Courcelles. It was a memorable event, and signals the beginning of the next chapter of the company’s Belgian success story.
The Netherlands has always been progressive when it comes to energy consumption and entrepreneurship.
In recent years, the Netherlands, and Groningen in particular, has been shocked by earthquakes, ground and collapsing buildings caused by natural gas extraction. In addition, the enormous emissions of CO2 ensure that global warming continues to evolve with all its consequences. Moreover, fossil fuels are not infinite and will run out at some point.
The enormous emissions of CO2 and its effect on global climate change have become important items in the news the recent years. Not surprising given that the emission of greenhouse gases is warming our earth more and more, resulting in the melting of the polar caps and a worldwide rise in water levels.
WDP is adding a multi-tenant distribution centre covering approximately 150,000 m² to its multimodal location at North Sea Port in Ghent (the WDPort of Ghent). Retailers X2O Badkamers, Overstock Home and Overstock Garden have entered into a long-term lease engagement.
