Since 2021, Bidfood Netherlands has incorporated 25 Renault Trucks E-Tech vehicles into its operations.
By the end of the first quarter of 2025, 25 new units will join Bidfood Netherlands’ fleet.
These electric trucks have already prevented 230 tonnes of CO2 emissions, demonstrating that logistics is a key lever for decarbonisation.
Dick Slootweg, Managing Director of Bidfood Netherlands, describes this transition as a concrete response to environmental challenges.
“These tangible results show that electromobility is not a distant ambition but an operational and effective reality. It allows us to reduce our environmental footprint while meeting our customers’ growing expectations for sustainability,” he states.
From the start of their collaboration, Renault Trucks and Bidfood Netherlands have built a strong partnership based on ongoing exchanges and tailored solutions to meet the company’s specific needs.
“For three years, we have worked closely with Bidfood to integrate electric vehicles into their fleet and address the operational challenges of their logistics,” explains Jérôme Berthelet, Managing Director of Renault Trucks Netherlands. “
“This collaboration has enabled us to develop customised solutions aligned with their constraints and decarbonisation ambitions,” he adds.
