About us

Our name stands for Logistics Quality Systems and reflects the extensive knowledge and experience we’ve built over many years in internal transport systems for greenhouse horticulture. In recent years, we’ve made significant strides in the automation of vertical farming. This development will have a significant impact on global food production in the coming years.

A global player with quintessential Dutch roots: that’s Logiqs. We create automated growing systems for horticulture, but we also don’t shy away from technical challenges like warehouse automation and state‑of‑the‑art vertical farms. Each and every one of our systems is innovative, intelligent, and modular, allowing work to be done quickly and safely. We push ourselves to the limit, because at Logiqs, we know: if the customer is successful, we grow together. Although we’re a veteran of the industry with 50 years of experience, our ambitions are more comparable to those of a startup. We want to transform our sector, and we fully understand that we can only achieve our goals through sustainable exponential growth.
