Weerts Group invests in Garocentre, the trimodal terminal of La Louviere.
The fruitful collaboration between Weerts Group, the IDEA territorial development agency and the city of La Louvière will eventually lead to the construction of a logistics hub of more than 68,000 m². Located in the heart of Garocentre Trimodal, close to the E42 and directly connected to the Canal du Centre, this new project will integrate sustainable technologies and will create at least 250 direct jobs. Construction is scheduled to begin in late summer 2022 and the first building is expected to open in the third quarter of 2023.

Airport transport activities
After almost 50 years of experience in transport, warehousing and logistics, WSC is taking the next step in its ambitious strategy by introducing air freight transport to and from Liège Airport, thus further expanding its already extensive range of services. Since December'20, WSC has been able to offer this ever-growing transport branch, fully in line with the family business' prevailing quality standards. Not only were investments made in 8 additional tractors and 11 additional trailers of the "Roller Bed" type - specifically equipped for air cargo transport - also 10 extra drivers and 2 employees were recruited. Nothing was left to chance at the start. The equipment is suitable for loading PMC and ULD, with a maximum height of up to 3 metres, and the customer's needs can be met quickly and personally, thanks to the professional team that has extensive expertise. Flexibility, responsiveness and expertise are the key USPs that not only guarantee a 24/7 service but also provide added value to operators operating in the vicinity of the airport.
