European logistics service provider Vos Logistics succeeded to improve its results in 2025 despite a challenging logistics market. With slightly lower volumes the turnover of €356 million was similar to the previous year. Contribution margin was elevated by enhanced operational execution. The EBIT increased to € 9.3 mln (2024: € 3.8 mln) and resulted in a net profit of € 4.5 million (2024: break-even). Liquidity improved to € 16 million, while net debt decreased to €40 million (2024: € 43 million).

Solutions

Solutions, providing services in warehousing, distribution and freight management grew its volumes and profitability. Warehousing performed well due to enhanced utilization and operational improvement enabled by the newly implemented warehouse management system (WMS). Benelux Distribution delivered a stable financial performance. General lower demand was compensated by onboarding of new business. The inhouse developed Control Tower boosted the growth of Freight Management. Integrated with our WMS it improves the customer journey while it creates operational efficiency at the same time.

International Transport

The International Transport division continued its gradual recovery in 2025. Contribution margins improved across all product groups despite lower demand, particularly in automotive and petrochemicals. Lane optimization, balance improvements and cost measures supported results. New business in retail and FMCG helped mitigate weakening volumes in other sectors.

Digital transformation and cybersecurity

Vos Logistics made significant progress in modernizing its IT infrastructure, integrating applications and strengthening cybersecurity. A major milestone was the achievement of ISO 27001 certification. The rollout of cybersecurity awareness programs across the organization further embedded secure behaviour into daily operations. The roll out of NYCE-WMS and Optiflow to optimize distribution planning are supporting our service proposition. Initial steps were also taken toward AI-driven productivity, including the exploration of AI use cases to enhance both customer experience and internal processes.

Acquisition by Jacky Perrenot close to completion

The acquisition of Vos Logistics by Jacky Perrenot is close to completion. The combination creates one of Europe’s leading logistics service providers. With a team of 12,000 colleagues and 10,000 trucks/loading units and 800,000 m2 warehouse capacity, the combination generates a revenue of € 1.7 bn. With the common values and culture, we are determined to respond to the questions of sustainable, flexible and digitized logistics services. This way, our customers truly benefit from the Power of our Shared Network.

Outlook

The economic outlook for 2026 is rather uncertain. Political uncertainties and geopolitical tensions have impact on demand for transport and logistics. While this perspective requires the organization to tread with care, it is no reason for pessimism. Vos Logistics has adapted to turbulent market circumstances before and prepared the company to support their customers with their fluctuating demand and corresponding logistical challenges.

Frank Verhoeven, CEO, comments:
“2025 was a year of progress and transformation. Despite challenging market conditions, we improved our results, strengthened our organization and continued to invest in digitalization, sustainability and our people. This provides a good basis to collaborate with Jacky Perrenot and to support our customers navigating through a challenging period.”

Ben Vos, CFO, adds:
“Disciplined financial management and targeted investments enabled us to further improve liquidity, reduce debt and strengthen solvency. These results confirm that our strategy is working and that we are building a resilient, future-proof organization.”
