Port to plant, by rail
Containers leave the Port of Antwerp-Bruges by rail and arrive at Gosselin's own terminal in Rekkem, on the French border. From there, they continue by truck to factories, warehouses and distribution centres across the region. One operator, from port to final delivery.
A strategic gateway on the French border
Rekkem sits directly on the Belgian-French border. Kortrijk, Waregem, Roeselare, Lille, Tourcoing and Roubaix are all within roughly one hour by road, putting West Flanders and Northern France within easy reach of deep-sea container flows.
