Production & Logistics
PRODUCTION
We run a 24-hour operation to process all orders. The night shift and early-day shift process the orders for our customers that we distribute ourselves. The late-day shift prepares the deliveries to the HANOS wholesale stores. From arrival, we monitor all products with unique tracking numbers, controlling and ensuring that all processing steps are followed. The requested fresh seafood is first collected per order and then carefully processed and packaged per your specific requests by skilled fish filleters. Scrubbing, deboning, or portioning? Just let us know!
LOGISTICS
An experienced team of logistics employees guarantees a careful delivery of your order. Versvishandel Jan van As has a modern fleet of trucks that transport your order (always via the same route). The roofs of these trucks are fitted with solar panels that provide power to the refrigeration system of the cargo space, also when the engine is turned off. This keeps the temperature in the cargo space consistent, which benefits the quality of the fish. We recently started distributing in the city with a 100% electric car and two goupils. In addition to our own transportation, we also collaborate closely with TringTring in Amsterdam. They deliver orders to our customers with refrigerated cargo bikes. Of course, we always notify you of your order status. We give advance notice about the 2-hour time slot for your expected delivery. GPS tracking allows our logistics department to monitor the exact location of our vehicles.
FOOD SAFETY
As a food business owner, you have a responsibility towards your guests to serve fresh, high-quality food.
