About FCL
FCL has delivered reliable logistics solutions to international companies importing through Antwerp.
Logistics & warehousing
For over 50 years, we have been a trusted partner in logistics and warehousing, with one clear mission: delivering reliable, flexible, and efficient solutions to international clients importing through the port of Antwerp.

Founded in 1975 as betramij, we’ve evolved into a full-service logistics provider that supports the entire supply chain, from maritime transport, customs clearance, and quality control to container stripping, warehousing, and distribution. Our operations are powered by more than 30,000 m² of storage space and our own fleet, giving us end-to-end control and flexibility.
What sets us apart is not only our infrastructure but also our experienced, loyal team and our straightforward, no-nonsense approach. We believe in building long-term partnerships through transparency, speed, and consistent results.
With strategic hubs in Antwerp and Sint-Truiden, we’re especially well-positioned to support German companies looking for dependable, efficient logistics services close to the heart of Europe’s trade routes.
At FCL, we’re more than a logistics provider, we’re a hands-on, agile partner you can count on to keep your supply chain moving.
