The Maple Group is made up of 4 extremely strong companies. Qargo Packers and Van Veelen Industrial Packaging, experts within the industrial packaging industry. Plus Snoeck Services and Unilash specialize in securing break bulk and project cargo in containers and on board seagoing vessels. This has created one of the largest companies in the sector. The Maple Group operates in both the Netherlands (Rotterdam and Schiphol) and Belgium (Antwerp).
In recent years, Greenport Rotterdam has been transformed into a high-quality maritime service and maintenance complex located at a central location in the port of Rotterdam and directly connected to the sea and hinterland. In addition to the Maple Group, the complex also houses HEBO Maritiemservice, Damen Shiprepair, NKT Cables, Rijkswaterstaat, IHC and SupTech.
