What began as a local brick-and-mortar retailer in the Netherlands in 1972 has grown into a cross-border e-commerce operation serving customers in Belgium, Germany, and France. But with that expansion came new challenges\u2014especially in the logistics and supply chain side of the business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we continued to grow, we started a project to look at our logistics service partner,\u201d says Johanneke de Moor. \u201cWith every improvement, we see if we can make it as scalable as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><div class=\"responsive-embed widescreen\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/1153665712?badge=0&amp;autopause=0&amp;player_id=0&amp;app_id=58479\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" title=\"APLL+HBM (French CC)\"><\/iframe><\/div><br \/>\nAfter evaluating several potential providers, HBM selected APL Logistics (APLL) as its long-term partner. The collaboration quickly moved from planning to action. One of the most recent joint projects involved building an API connection between HBM\u2019s systems and APLL\u2019s\u2014allowing for a near real-time exchange of logistics data. \u201cOne of the advantages of APLL is that they have a lot of data about all our shipments,\u201d says de Moor. \u201cWe improved within that project to have that data near real time in our system and to have better visibility on all our orders and shipments.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><em>\u201c\u2026We chose APLL because they can offer us scalability in our logistics needs\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-start=\"2329\" data-end=\"2652\">For a growing international retailer like HBM, the ability to scale efficiently, ship smarter, and track orders with precision isn\u2019t just a goal\u2014it\u2019s a necessity. Thanks to APLL\u2019s technology and logistics expertise, the company is better positioned to serve its customers across Europe, with greater control and less waste.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2654\" data-end=\"2703\">As de Moor puts it: <em data-start=\"2674\" data-end=\"2703\">\u201cLet\u2019s go for it together.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>With its global expertise and network spanning over 120 service locations across 60 countries, APL Logistics is committed to empowering supply chains for success. Our supply chain solutions leverage the experience of our committed professionals and cutting-edge technology to equip businesses with the tools to improve resilience, boost efficiency, and drive
