Warehousing and fulfilment services in Europe

From origin to destination, you can design smarter flows for every SKU with the agility to scale by season. Get the visibility to act early and reliability to protect your margins.

Consolidation and deconsolidation

Streamline product flow with consolidation and deconsolidation, including direct and delayed cross-dock options. Speed up or slow down to match demand, and direct cargo where it’s needed most: to distribution centres, retail stores, or straight to consumers with value-added services such as repackaging, labelling and quality checks along the way.

Fulfilment

Pick, pack and ship for B2B and B2C with inventory control across your supply chain. Operate true omnichannel fulfilment from our European sites with returns handling that scans items back to stock and accelerates refunds for a better end-customer experience.

Be ready for smarter entry into Europe

European supply chains aren’t what they used to be. Fragmented networks, tighter regulations, and unpredictable lead times put pressure on every handoff.

Maersk Contract Logistics simplifies the complexity. With gateway warehouses in Rotterdam (cross dock and cold storage), Bremerhaven, and Rijeka, three of Europe’s busiest deep-sea entry points, you get integrated customs and inland distribution built in.

Less coordination and faster time to market. By positioning your cargo next to key terminals, you benefit from faster clearance, shorter drayage, and fewer handoffs between vessel and customer. Whether you need additional port-side capacity or end-to-end management, our gateway warehouses are your starting or exit point. Book a tour and see it in action.

Beyond Compliance: Ensuring Temperature Integrity Across Europe’s Cold Chain

The Good Distribution Practice (GDP) guidelines established a compliance architecture for ensuring temperature-sensitive product integrity. But there is something happening across European weather patterns that those guidelines did not anticipate. Understand why weather fluctuations are becoming a new GDP compliance frontier.
