Independence
Trihav carries no brands of its own and belongs to no retail group. That neutrality is a structural choice, visible in the shareholder structure, rather than a marketing claim.
About
The harbour where three equal streams meet
Tri stands for our three equal pillars. Hav comes from haven, the arrival and distribution point from which goods, commercial development and execution move into the market.
Mission
Connecting suppliers to the shop floor
Trihav connects suppliers to the shop floor through one integrated and independent Benelux partnership. Brands keep their focus on product and strategy, while we secure a reliable, visible and sales driven presence in the market.
Vision
The Benelux reference for the full chain
We aim to be the partner brands choose when they want distribution, commercial development and store level execution in one place. That choice should not be based on price alone, but on the fact that we master all three disciplines equally and carry no commercial interests of our own into the relationship.
Strategic choices
Three decisions that define us
Benelux proximity
One central warehouse in Rumst is combined with local Sales Specialists in Belgium and the Netherlands. That gives you scale in logistics and local knowledge in the commercial relationship.
Three equal pillars
Distribution, sales development and field execution weigh the same. No discipline is a bolt-on to another.
Our values
Independent, reliable, practical
Independent
We treat every brand entrusted to us equally, in every channel. We carry no brands of our own and belong to no retail group.
Reliable
We report as an open book and name lead times and agreements concretely. We do not promise what a partner has to deliver.
Practical
One contact person, clear procedures and a presence in the store. No jargon and no long trajectories without a date.
