Meet Our Founder

D&R Group was established in 1977 by Ron de Roo and Arie van Donge. Since its inception, the company has proudly carried their family names. In 1983, Ron de Roo assumed full ownership and continued operations under the D&R name—a brand that had already earned strong recognition within the logistics sector.

Today, the D&R Group consists of a diversified portfolio of companies operating across key areas of the logistics industry. These include freight forwarding, NVOCC (Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier) services, software development, intermodal transport (rail, barge, and road), customs brokerage, terminal and depot operations, as well as safety and compliance services.
