ViaEurope, a leading European cross border e-company continues to expand. The e-logistics tech start-up has just announced the opening of its new e-Hub in Liège (LGG/Belgium). Liege new e-Hub is 100% dedicated to cross border e-commerce.

 

“Cross border e-commerce is growing rapidly, with millions of parcels entering the EU from China and the United States every day. To create, from this tsunami of parcels, a seamless cross border experience for the consumer, technology will be key. Operating smart e-HUBs will be even more crucial in the e-commerce logistics supply chain considering the up-coming EU regulation whereby the VAT thresholds (de minimis) will be removed and each B2C parcel will have to be Customs cleared” explains BJ Streefland, ViaEurope CEO.


Cargo & Logistics Manager  at Liege Airport, Bert Selis says: “Liège Airport offers a great environment for an innovative company such as ViaEurope. Their decision to land here comes with the recognition that our airport is highly favorable to a fast-growing e-commerce sector.”


ViaEurope executive team takes a strategic step to ensure they stay ahead of their own customers expectations, offering seam-less operations and frictionless services.


“Liege plays a key role in this strategy. Just like AMS,LGG managed to create a very e-commerce friendly climate. With BeGate, similar to the VENUE in The Netherlands (which stands for simplified declaration eCommerce), B2C parcels can be pre-cleared in bulk ensuring flowless processing.”
