History of Trans Stars

Frank Sterkens followed a high college education for manager of business administration and quality assurance manager of ISO 9000. In 1995 it was very difficult to find a qualified job, so he started in October the 1st, 1995 Trans Stars company in Made. 

Trans Stars started as a haulier for Sea-Land to transport deep-sea containers with a Renault G290GT of 1986 with a 20’ and 40’ trailer. After a period of 22 months, Sea-Land decided to give all the transport jobs to three big hauliers. For 8 months we drove for one of these transportation companies, but the prices and transport planning where not up to our standards so we decided to stop cooperation.

From March 1998, we got the opportunity to drive directly for NYK Line (Benelux) B.V. in Rotterdam, where we are still hauling for. Our target was and still is to serve the NYK Line clients as good as possible by giving them an excellent service and ensure on time delivering of containers.

Trans Stars is at the moment a haulier for NYK Line in Rotterdam. NYK Line has one of the biggest shipping lines in the world. They know as no other how important it is to keep good clients by delivering the containers just on time and safely. Knowing all the employees in the NYK Line organisation, we have the possibility to contact the responsible person directly for new suggestions or solving minor problems, to ensure reliable transportation.
