A real wholesaler, with its own warehouses

BOB Distribution imports and exports food products worldwide and supplies distribution centres and wholesalers.

The range consists of premium brands in soft drinks, snacks and sweets, such as Coca-Cola, Lay's and Chupa Chups. You will find us at trade fairs, and you are welcome to visit us in Borne.

Our team

BOB Distribution is more than a logistics and wholesale company. It is a driven, fast-moving team of international professionals who believe in real contact and real results. From the warehouses in Europe, the United States and Asia to the head office in the Netherlands, everyone works towards the same goal: the best products, the best service and the smoothest possible process.

What makes us different

A team of young, motivated specialists, each with their own background, language and skills. Whether it is negotiating the best deals, running the warehouses, handling customs smoothly or simply making you smile when your delivery arrives: it is done with care and precision.

Global reach, personal care

Our people speak your language, literally and figuratively. We work with customers all over the world and know the value of speed, communication and trust. No request is too big or too small; we will find a way together.

What we stand for

  • Taking action over waiting
  • Being honest and direct
  • Working hard, but laughing harder
  • Treating partners like friends, not just customers

Come and meet us

We enjoy meeting our customers. Whether you visit the office in the Netherlands, get in touch via WhatsApp or meet us at a trade fair: you will notice straight away what makes this team different.

Why order from us

We do not just move products. Ordering from us means choosing a partner that combines global reach, sharp prices and dependable service.

Fast and worldwide

From Europe to Asia, from the United States to the Middle East. Whether it is a full container or a few pallets: the order arrives where it needs to be, quickly, safely and traceably.

Smart sourcing

We continuously scan the market for the best and newest products. Thanks to our network and buying power we can offer sharp prices and exclusive deals across every category.

Flexible logistics

Ex works, FOB port, delivered to your address or straight to your customer: we adapt to your preferred shipping method. We also help with customs, documentation and filling a container efficiently, including cubic metre calculations and mixed loads.

Real people

Not a faceless platform. The team helps you directly, via WhatsApp or email. Whether it is tracking a shipment, putting together the right product mix or solving a delivery problem: you are one message away from an answer.

Reliable and repeatable

Most customers come back. Because they know what to expect, every single time.

Finance

BOB Distribution supports the growth of its wholesale partners with flexible financing, meant to let you act fast without straining your working capital. Whether you buy full containers or pallets: fixed payment terms keep your budget under control.

An example

You pay 25% up front and the remaining 75% once the goods have arrived: at our warehouse for orders within the EU, or at your port or logistics hub for international shipments.

  • Fast approval for regular customers
  • No minimum order value
  • Clear agreements, no hidden costs
  • Support for large or recurring orders

From Borne to the world

The journey so far, year by year.

  1. 2017

    A cellar room with a red floor and wooden shelves full of bottles of spirits, wine and soft drinks.
    The cellar
    • Started as an evening shop from the cellar, with weekend delivery for anyone at a party who ran out of beer, wine, mixers or snacks.

  2. 2018

    A small hall with an open roller door, racks of soft drinks and pallets of crates.
    The first hall
    • After the cellar came the first hall, of 40 m³: a big step at the time, but we quickly outgrew it.

  3. 2019

    A larger, still empty hall with white walls, a concrete floor and a stepladder.
    A step up
    • Another step up, with the first forklift. Some 70 pallets of beer and soft drinks were stored there, and the first delivery by truck became a reality: we supplied wholesalers and cafés.

  4. 2020

    Crates of beer and soft drinks stacked high, with a yellow forklift in front.
    Fresh stock all the time
    • Growth took off: the stock in the hall was replaced every two to three days, and we delivered ourselves by van.

  5. 2021

    An open shipping container loaded with shrink-wrapped pallets of beer.
    The first container to China
    A hall full of shrink-wrapped pallets of beer, stacked two high.
    The extra hall
    • The first container went to China: the first step into export.
    • An extra hall, for twice as much storage and more sales.
    • Online drinks wholesaler under the name DrankGoedkoop, for business and private customers.
