Our mission statement? Ambitious people realising creative logistic solutions.

Our organisation is an international network: many of our employees are constantly in contact with their colleagues around the world. We value and respect the diversity of our workforce and make full use of each other’s strengths. In short: teamwork across the globe.

People development and improvement are two values that go hand in hand. We expect all employees to develop themselves and we’ll support you all the way. If you grow, the company grows. It’s as simple as that. Den Hartogh’s chemistry, which includes ambition, initiative, ownership and teamwork, enables all employees to make a difference.

We embrace diversity and inclusiveness amongst current and future colleagues. Regardless of age, gender identity, years of employment, etc., we take care of your wellbeing, offer equal development opportunities and treat everybody with respect.

Our family owned organization started in Hillegom, the Netherlands in 1920. Through the years Den Hartogh grew as a business and as an employer. By the acquisition of Sint Anna Transport in Belgium in 1970, Den Hartogh opened her first office outside the Netherlands. In the years thereafter new business in other countries was created and we welcomed new dedicated and ambitious colleagues from different cultures and languages. But always with the same passion to realize creative logistics solutions. Nowadays we have over 1800 employees in various roles working in 26 countries around the globe.

We are proud to have celebrated our 100th anniversary in 2020. This anniversary became extra special, when Den Hartogh Logistics was awarded with the predicate ‘Royal’ by His Majesty King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands. 

Group Managing Director Pieter den Hartogh: “On behalf of all Den Hartogh employees I can say we are extremely proud to now use the designation ‘Royal’. It is both literally and figuratively the crowning glory for the work of our employees all around the world after 100 years of entrepreneurship. People were back then and still are the backbone of our company. We have been able to evolve the past century because of our culture of entrepreneurship, facing the future and adapting ourselves accordingly. And because of our constant focus on improvement and solving challenges by coming up with answers and new logistics solutions.”
