What we arrange, for whom, and what is included.

Every service below is available on its own or combined under a single forwarding contract with one point of contact.

Warehouse loading bays with a truck at the dock

International road transport

Full truckloads (FTL) and groupage (LTL) across the European Union, with our busiest lane between Central Europe and Greece. Standard tautliners and refrigerated trailers, door to door.

Who it is for, and what is included

Producers, traders and manufacturers shipping between Central Europe and Greece who want one carrier relationship instead of many.

  • FTL — full truckloads, standard or refrigerated
  • LTL groupage — from a single pallet upwards
  • Fixed pickup and delivery windows
  • CMR documentation and transit monitoring

Domestic transport in Greece

Collections and deliveries within Greece: from ports, produce markets and packing houses to warehouses, stores and consignees.

Who it is for, and what is included

Importers receiving goods at Greek ports, and exporters consolidating produce from growers across northern Greece and the Peloponnese.

  • Port and market collections
  • Last-leg delivery to the consignee
  • Consolidation of multiple pickups into one load

Customs clearance

Preparation and lodging of import and export declarations, transit documents (T1/T2) and duty handling, coordinated with the transport so trucks do not wait.

Who it is for, and what is included

Shippers moving goods that cross customs regimes, or anyone who does not want to manage brokers in two countries.

  • Export and import declarations
  • T1 / T2 transit documents
  • Tariff classification and duty calculation
  • Coordination with border and port agents

Freight forwarding

The core of Stolos: we act as your single contractual partner and organise the full chain — carrier selection, booking, customs, warehousing and delivery — under one file and one invoice.

Who it is for, and what is included

Companies without their own logistics department, and logistics teams that want a reliable corridor specialist for SK / AT ↔ GR.

  • One contract, one contact, one invoice
  • Carrier vetting and booking
  • End-to-end supervision of every consignment
  • A single point of responsibility when something changes

Warehousing

General (ambient) storage across our network of 17 warehouses in Germany, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and Greece: buffering between transports, cross-docking, and consolidation of part loads.

Who it is for, and what is included

Exporters accumulating stock for full loads, importers who need a buffer near their market, and shippers who want storage close to both ends of a lane.

  • Short- and medium-term palletised storage
  • Cross-docking and reloading
  • Consolidation before international departure
  • Goods-in / goods-out documentation

Refrigerated storage for fruit & vegetables

Temperature-controlled chambers in the Imathia fruit belt of northern Greece, holding fresh produce in its correct band between −2 °C and +12 °C from intake to cold loading. This is the service the rest of our corridor is built around.

Who it is for, and what is included

Growers, packers and traders of Greek fruit and vegetables shipping north, and Central European importers of fresh produce.

  • Separate chambers per temperature band
  • Goods-in inspection: pulp temperature, condition, count
  • Humidity management and ethylene-aware chamber allocation
  • FIFO stock rotation with lot tracking
  • Temperature logging across the storage period
  • Cold loading onto refrigerated trailers

Greek produce sourcing

We buy fresh Greek produce on your behalf — fruit, vegetables, eggs and packaged supermarket goods — directly from growers, packing houses and producers in northern Greece. You receive one delivered price covering product, cold storage and transport, instead of negotiating with growers, a cold store and a carrier separately.

Who it is for, and what is included

Supermarket buyers, importers, wholesalers and food service operators in Central Europe who want Greek produce without building a Greek supply chain themselves.

  • Direct buying from growers and packing houses — no broker layer between you and the producer
  • Negotiated locally, in Greek, at the point of production
  • Grade and quality checked at intake, with batch records
  • Pre-cooling and cold storage before dispatch
  • One delivered price and one invoice: product, storage and transport

Temperature bands and what belongs in them.

Produce is not stored at one temperature. Each chamber is held in a band, and each product goes to the band where it keeps longest.

−2 °C to +2 °C

Grapes, apples, pears, stone fruit, kiwi, cherries

+2 °C to +8 °C

Citrus, carrots, cabbage, leafy vegetables

+8 °C to +12 °C

Tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, courgettes, aubergines

  • Pulp-temperature check at goods-in, before acceptance
  • Ethylene producers kept apart from ethylene-sensitive produce
  • Loading at chamber temperature — no warm ramp, no broken chain

Storage temperatures are agreed per consignment. The bands above are our standard chamber settings.

Answers to what buyers ask us most.

Which countries does Stolos Logistics cover?

We arrange road freight throughout the European Union — all 27 member states — plus Serbia and North Macedonia as Balkan transit countries. We hold operating bases in Slovakia, Germany and Greece, and a network of 17 warehouses across Germany, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands and Greece.

Do you handle refrigerated transport for fresh produce?

Yes. We arrange temperature-controlled transport and refrigerated warehousing for fruit and vegetables, holding produce between −2 °C and +12 °C from intake through to cold loading, so the chain is never broken at the ramp.

What temperature ranges do you offer for cold storage?

Three standard chamber bands: −2 °C to +2 °C for grapes, apples, pears, stone fruit, kiwi and cherries; +2 °C to +8 °C for citrus, carrots, cabbage and leafy vegetables; and +8 °C to +12 °C for tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, courgettes and aubergines. Storage temperature is agreed per consignment.

What is the difference between FTL and LTL groupage?

FTL (full truckload) dedicates an entire trailer to one consignment, which is faster and involves no reloading. LTL groupage consolidates your pallets with other shipments on the same trailer, which costs less but takes longer. We arrange both, from a single pallet upwards.

Do you arrange customs clearance?

Yes. We prepare and lodge import and export declarations, handle T1 and T2 transit documents, carry out tariff classification and duty calculation, and coordinate with border and port agents at both ends of the route — timed with the transport so trucks do not wait.

How quickly will I receive a quotation?

Send the route, cargo details and preferred loading date through the quote form and you receive a written offer, usually within one business day.

Can you transport goods within Greece?

Yes. We arrange domestic collections and deliveries within Greece — from ports, produce markets and packing houses to warehouses, stores and consignees — including consolidating multiple pickups into a single load.

Do you serve supermarkets and retail chains?

Yes. Fresh produce moving from Greece to Central European retail is a core lane for us, combining cold storage, temperature-controlled transport and delivery into distribution centres under one contract and one invoice.
