He has high ambitions and is always on the lookout for chances. In 2012 he became Steel Solutions\u2019 owner. With a 50-people staff Steel Solutions provides logistics from steel products to consumers worldwide from Maastricht. Just-in-Time and Just-in-Sequence. Because consumers, like car manufacturers, prefer small stocks with products coming in in the desired order and quantities. That\u2019s why Steel Solutions owns warehouses in Maastricht and Born. It won\u2019t be too long until Feijen will open a distribution centre in Milan, the new headquarters of the South-European market. The West-European market will be served from Maastricht.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]\t\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n\r\n    <\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"mkd-elements-holder   mkd-two-columns  mkd-responsive-mode-768 \" ><div class=\"mkd-eh-item  mkd-vertical-alignment-top  \" style=\"background-color: #ffffff\" data-item-class=\"mkd-eh-custom-3497\" data-1280-1600=\"21% 11% 25% 11%\" data-1024-1280=\"20% 7% 25%\" data-768-1024=\"20% 7% 26% 7%\" data-680-768=\"20% 15%\" data-680=\"0 5% 43%\">\r\n\r\n\t<div class=\"mkd-eh-item-inner\">\r\n\r\n\t\t<div class=\"mkd-eh-item-content mkd-eh-custom-3497\" style=\"padding: 23% 21%\">\r\n\t\t\t[vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Being unique and different \u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Feijen is proud of the constant growth of the company in the past few years. But the railway connection is also a good reason to be proud. It connects Steelport Maastricht directly to the European railway network. For the company this enables them to make a huge step forward. It makes Steel Solutions\u2019 transport possibilities trimodal. This way steel can be transported by road, water or rail. \u201cA train can carry forty times the load of a truck. In addition, unloading one train doesn\u2019t take nearly as long as unloading forty trucks. Right now six trains take a halt at the company every week, this number will grow to eight in the near future. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Feijen can\u2019t sit still, that\u2019s for sure. He\u2019s already working on a new project: an online steel platform. Not one for sales, but an e-fulfilment platform. It should be up and running five years from now. The built has already started and IT specialists are working on it. A natural and logical next step for Steel Solutions according to the entrepreneur. \u201cOur service isn\u2019t that different from Amazon\u2019s. The only thing we\u2019re lacking is the online platform\u201d, Feijen concludes. \u201cWho says internet giants like Alibaba or Amazon won\u2019t sell steel someday?
