🚢 Life on board? Not without drinking water! 🌊 In Antwerp, inland skippers find fixed drinking water points at various locations within the port area. Drinking water not only quenches the thirst, but the ship’s crew also uses it for showers and household purposes! What happens if skippers are on a long journey with no drinking water points nearby? The drinking water boats from Groep De Wit offer a 'waterproof' solution! 💧 Did you know that a drinking water boat can transport more than 100 000 litres?!

A taste for chocolate? 🍫 This World Chocolate Day, we’re highlighting the journey of the cocoa bean. Our port is the second largest cocoa port in Europe, but the story of the cocoa bean begins in the hot and humid climate of West Africa. 🌍 About 60% of all cocoa beans in our port come from cocoa plantations run by local farmers in Côte d'Ivoire and Ghana. The beans are sold through cooperatives. Before being shipped, the cocoa ends up in large warehouses, where it undergoes necessary inspection and packaging in bags. The cocoa bean requires humidity below 8%, so during their sea journey, they are kept in adapted containers. 🚢 In Belgium, the cocoa beans again make their way to various mega warehouses, such as in Antwerp! Here, they receive another packaging, thorough cleaning, and precise quality control. ✅ Their final destination? Local supermarkets, chocolate factories... and your backpack or pocket! Learn more about our role as a 'cocoa hub' in Europe at https://bit.ly/3VUYnpg. #WorldChocolateDay #Cocoa #CocoaJourney #ChocolateLovers
