Handelskade is a Dutch shipbuilding contractor with over 30 years of experience in inland and coastal vessels. We operate globally, with a strong focus on Vietnam, Turkey, and Romania. Our flexible model without owning a shipyard allows us to select the best available yard for each project, always aiming for the optimal price-quality ratio.
Handelskade takes care of the complete procurement of ship equipment, tailored to each project. Thanks to our reliable suppliers, with whom we have a longterm relationship and track record, we are able to compare and assess multiple technical and commercial options always aiming for the best price-quality-performance ratio.
Handelskade Marine Logistics (HML) provides complete logistics solutions for the marine and cruise industry. No challenge is too complex: from frozen and refrigerated cargo to oversized equipment or urgent hand-carried deliveries, we take care of it.
Last week, the vessel completed its official trial run, with all tests successfully concluded. Operating with 3 barges and a total cargo of 7,000 tons, the convoy showcased its powerful diesel-electric propulsion system (2 × 960 kW Oswald) supported by 5 DAF-Paccar diesel generating sets and 840 kWh of batteries.
A strong step forward, thanks to all partners involved.
We wish Rhenus Logistics and her crew a safe and successful operation.
Bij Handelskade staan we open voor studenten die kennis willen maken met de wereld van scheepsbouw, maritieme projecten en internationaal projectmanagement.

Over the past few days we unloaded 6 trailers and loaded 4 containers with equipment for Handelskade’s newbuild project.
These containers are already on their way to Vietnam, where four new vessels are currently under construction.
Our new warehouse is steadily filling up and the workflow is running smoothly.
It is nice to see how quickly the space is being put to full use.
It has been an exciting month for us at Handelskade!
We kicked off the first week of November with a company-wide achievement: every team member successfully obtained their forklift certificate.
From finance to management, everyone is now certified to safely load and unload the goods handled in our warehouse.
It was a great team effort and one that reflects our hands-on mindset and commitment to operational excellence.
As part of our growth strategy, Handelskade has officially moved to a new location in hashtag#Alblasserdam as of November 3rd.
This step gives our team the space to continue growing and developing our activities.
With significantly more office capacity, we are ready to expand our team, strengthen our partnerships, and further shape the next phase of Handelskade’s ambitions.
