You might have many issues with your current industrial packaging vendor at the Port of Antwerp. You might have had a certain amount of time to get your project completed and you were left running behind schedule perhaps because the wait time to get your products packaged, due to the extensive transport, as their location is far away from the breakbulk area, and not multi modal connected. 

You might have had insufficient storage in and outside and your goods didn't have protection against external influences. Mobile teams weren't a thing,  you weren't even at the best location for the seaworthy packaging you need.and you didn't have convenient long-term storage. After all that headache, you still didn't even know what harbor was best for your exporting needs, and there wasn't anyone to help you.
