France's third-largest port, its leading energy hub, major steelmaking operations and gigafactories under construction: Dunkirk concentrates flows on a massive scale. SXE Consulting optimises the supply chains of every industry in the Dunkirk area — steel, energy, food processing or any other sector: port supply, inventory, flows.
Steel bulk cargo, containers, energy materials: flows in Dunkirk are counted in millions of tonnes, and every day of demurrage or stock-out is costly. The arrival of gigafactories is profoundly reshaping the local logistics ecosystem — land, transport, labour. A typical assignment: a metals processor at the port significantly reduced its material inventory and demurrage costs by synchronising its maritime supply with its production plan (S&OP). We work across the whole coastline: Dunkirk, Calais, Saint-Omer, Gravelines.
Bulk cargo, containers, demurrage, ship-to-plant planning: industrial port logistics is a discipline of its own — and it is ours.

New entrants, pressure on land and transport: we help established manufacturers adapt to this new ecosystem.
