About Katoen Natie

Katoen Natie

Katoen Natie, with the Huts family at the helm, is without doubt one of the best-known names in the world of logistics. The company was founded in 1854 and, at the time, its business was receiving and handling goods – cotton in particular – in the port of Antwerp.

Over time, the number of sectors expanded, and since the early 2000’s, everything speeded up: a whole series of companies was taken over and added to the imperium. Nowadays, Katoen Natie are a multinational with more than 13,000 employees worldwide and with operations in Europe, Asia, Africa and North and South America. It is a logistic partner offering storage facilities in every corner of our country.

A successful partnership for more than 15 years

The challenge

Katoen Natie have customers in many different industries. All of them want to store their goods safely. Given the short cycle times, Katoen Natie must be able to rely on a partner who can react quickly and who knows their manner of working. Today, they need a warehouse installation for furniture, and tomorrow this installation will need to be converted into racks for the storage of smaller consumer goods or chemicals. We can be proud that they have found this partner for more than 15 years in Hardy’s Industries.

“Our customers rely on being able to store their goods at the agreed time. Not before, and definitely not after. When timing is so crucial, we must be able to count on a reliable partner, and this has been Hardy's Industries for many years now.”
