TVH has officially opened its new main office in Waregem, Belgium. Dubbed ‘The Hub’, the new facility was opened by CEO Dominiek Valcke in the presence of 200 guests. “With this state-of-the-art office building, we can now employ even more people and easily introduce visitors to our services,” Valcke said.
Work on the site began in April 2019, and the new 13 000 sqm building is “a sleek, bright and contemporary solution to the impending lack of space that TVH was experiencing because of its rapid growth”, according to the company. Great attention was paid to comfort, ergonomics, and efficiency. Numerous CO2 sensors, temperature sensors, and controls ensure a pleasant indoor climate, and the many sound-absorbing materials also contribute to comfort.
“The growth that TVH has experienced in recent years entailed a strong increase in the number of employees,” says Valcke. “We didn’t just create more office space with The Hub. We can now also support our employees better with extra meeting rooms, an auditorium, a new company restaurant, a showroom, and an extensive meeting center. “This additional space is certainly not an unnecessary luxury, since we are looking for more than 250 new colleagues to strengthen TVH, in Waregem alone,” Valcke adds.
TVH is especially proud of its new “Experience Center”. “This unique 1,500 sqm visitor center primarily serves as a location to familiarise local and international visitors, such as customers, suppliers, associations, schools, and applicants, with the offer, services, atmosphere, and working method of TVH,” says the facility manager Luc Rasschaert. “And thanks to its interactive nature, TVH Experience Center is much more than just a showroom. Visitors can play games and test their driving skills with a virtual lift truck in a warehouse, for example.”
