4. Vision : Becoming The European Network Integrator of F & V • Spain and the Netherlands are the number one and two in exporting fresh produce • Germany and UK are the number one and two in importing fresh produce • A tendency to year round availability changes the focus from export to consumption areas • Focus DailyFresh is distribution to the consumption areas • Strategy is creating Fresh Consolidation Centres

5. DailyFresh wants to support retailers’ logistic needs rtnership and chain reduction Requirements Development retail logistics for fresh produce Partnership and chain compression Consolidation & Vendor managed inventory Responsivesness of chain X-docking & Rolling Stock complexity Stock reduction Reliability DF Dunkirk Keeping stock Availability time

6. Future: European Operations: Supply chain management • Dunkirk Consolidation Centre for UK and NW-Europe will become key in network approach • From consolidator of Dutch Product to full logistics service provider for a wide range of Fruit and Vegetables, year round from Europe and Overseas • A new consolidation centre in Dunkirk will merge flows from Spain, Benelux, rest of Europe and Overseas, rendering tailor made services for customers in the UK and NW-Europe. • From groupage loads to large scale FTL’s, mainly single drops, feeding RDC’s Poeldijk Dunkirk Overseas

8. Example Spain: Present inbound network from Spain is not very efficient • Multiple collection stops and multiple distribution stops do not add value to the supply chain • (Primary) Consolidation centres in UK are often required before RDC’s and other clients can be fed • Consignments on pallet-level prohibitively expensive • Seasonal business, no year round supply and • unpredictable transport pricing • Road transport will become increasingly unreliable and • expensive • Traffic jams, toll, strikes • 48 hour working week + 12 hour rest period; • longer lead time and higher rates • Driver shortage Dunkirk

9. Step 1: Consolidation Centre in Dunkirk will improve control,flexibility, responsiveness and costs in the supply chain • Spain: • FTL’s directly from large sources and • high density- collection from smaller sources saves on collection costs • Collection for groupage loads becomes easier, faster and more efficient • Dunkirk: • FTL’s are broken down to RDC requirements • Allocation of product can be done with 12 hrs lead time • Flows from Poeldijk, other Benelux sources and France / Italy be merged • Overseas supply: Merge flows of deepsea & reefer containers into European network • The need for a PCC could be eliminated if Dunkirk can feed directly into RDC’s • Vehicles can do store deliveries on their way back to Dover/Felixstowe

10. Step 2: Consolidation in Dunkirk for UK and NW-Europe is further facilitated by RoRo connection Santander - Dunkirk • Spain: • Shuttle Santander – South Spain decreases dependency on international road haulage • Better control over inbound network • Ferry: • 200 reefer trailers can be re-composed, consolidated and sequenced in Dunkirk • Dunkirk: • Dunkirk will become major consolidation point for Spanish produce flows • Dunkirk will become important roundabout for all international produce flows • Dunkirk can become a centre for rolling stock of citrus and overseas product • Dunkirk can consolidate a very large part of total Fruit & Vegetable supplies, year round

11. Not just superb logistic solutions, but also better economics • Saves 1100 kms driving to the UK (less for Benelux and Northern Germany) • No toll (€200,-) and disruptions in France • Extra payload (up to 4 tonnes) for the UK can be added in Dunkirk • Reliable: national collection and haulage in Spain, ferry and distribution all under control of DailyFresh Logistics Europe • Total lead time approx. 54 hours (collection Monday 20.00, arrives in RDC Thursday 02.00; road is not faster under new EU-regulations (2006) Via road: 2000 km Via ferry: 900 km
