Local Inventory, Global Reach

Having stock available within the EU means faster deliveries, lower return complexity, and stronger relationships with local customers. By using bonded warehouses, Indian exporters can also defer import duties and VAT until goods enter the European market—giving you greater control over cash flow and working capital.
From consumer goods and chemicals to high-value industrial products, De Rijke’s warehouses are fully equipped to handle diverse cargo. With temperature-controlled zones, ADR certification, and GDP/GMP compliance, we maintain the highest standards in storage and safety.

A bonded warehouse is an authorized storage facility where goods can be stored without immediately paying import duties or VAT. Only when the goods leave the warehouse for the European market do those charges become due.

We handle a wide variety—including non‑hazardous goods, chemicals, powders, granulates, and specialty products. Our facilities are equipped for ADR/IMO storage, temperature control, and we hold all necessary permits for customs and excise goods. 

Our warehouses operate under strict safety and compliance regimes. We hold certifications such as AEO, ISO 9001, SQAS, BRZO, and FamiQS, and we are equipped with advanced fire safety systems (sprinklers, foam) and ventilation measures. 

Yes. In addition to storage, we offer services like repackaging, labeling, bagging, filling, palletizing, shrink‑wrapping, mixing, conditioned handling, and more. All these services can be integrated with customs and transport operations for seamless execution. 

You can access our automated Warehouse Management System (WMS) via a secure web portal. It offers real‑time visibility over inventory status, movements, and order execution.

Absolutely. De Rijke has an in‑house customs department capable of managing import, export, transit, and bonded operations. This ensures faster clearance and fewer dependencies on external agents. 

Yes. Our warehouses are certified for ADR/IMO and properly equipped to safely store chemical and hazardous goods under strict regulatory compliance. 

Storing goods locally within Europe shortens lead times, reduces return complexities, improves customer satisfaction, and optimizes your cash flow via bonded warehousing. It also gives more flexibility in supply chain planning.
