>2.000 store locations, 20 warehouses, 20 hubs, 100+ suppliers and Online locations

Ahold Benelux decided to centralize transport across all banners..

Capture Scale Smart innovations Transparancy Effective operations

16

1000 – 1.200 trucks per day, >16.000.000 store orderable items per week, >400.000 load carriers per week, 100 FTE, 25 transport companies

25% of Ahold’s store locations not accessible with standard truck/trailer

In a challenging transport environment

17

Operational cost. Save to Invest Congestion Emissions Noise Government restrictions Safety Accessibility

Soon 70% of the population will live in city’s (MIT study on urbanization & mega-cities)

Challenges that are typically Dutch?

• Selling space expensive
• Limited backroom space, multiple deliveries a day
• Lot of small stores in urban area’s, delivered from

regional warehouses

• Specific equipment needed to access stores.
• Limited or controlled access in city-zones
• Pressure on life quality by government and

neighborhoods (customers), requires significant investments in silent and clean transport equipment

• 22% Co2 reduction in 4 years mainly due to more load & fuel efficiency

k

From pilot LNG to daily operation with menu silent & clean alternatives

LNG Truck (100+ and growing) Silent Diesel Truck (100+ and growing) Plug-in Hybrid (??) Hybrid –18ton (4)

Less noise & emission Less noise, 72 dB ZE last mile ZE urban area

…in 2025 our government demands zero emission transport inside the city centers

Although a lot is realized we have huge steps to go! AH neighbour:

• Everything has to be there, but

nothing should get there …

• Silent, silent, silent, stricter than the

law.

• Disappeared exhaust emissions:

Already forgotten.

ZE truck-trailer necessary 2020-2025 !

We alternative fuels to make significant steps in reducing Co2 emissions and noise levels

Also trailers need to comply to zero emission regulations in 2025

But there is more than just the truck and alterative fuels…

• Q4 2013 pilot reefertrailer with energy axle
• Q2 2015: 10 “phase 2” New Cool reefer

trailers

• 1 enerqy axle
• Solar cells on roof trailer
• Li-ion battery
• TRS refrigerator
• Suitable for supermarket distribution and inter-

DC transport

• Zero-Emission & silent
• High-potential

Trucks and trailers working together on zero emission transport…new ideas to develop..

In case of hybrid or plug-in hybrid there are more options…

25

Soon we pilot 2-way truck platooning on highways

Platooning: Near future?

• Safety
• Fuel reduction/ less Co2
• Prevent traffic jams
• Efficiency & Flexibility

26

From Looking together towards managing together

• Improve communication with our

carriers & warehouses & suppliers & stores & customers

• Paperless processes
• Trailer safety & temperature control
• Alerts in case of exceptions
• Transparency
• Availability of parking places &

unloading places at stores

• Last miles truck guidance
• Local road information & obstructions

Transport control tower

Make it profitable or break-even from day one… if the scale potential is there..

Ahold’s way to develop and test all these new ideas…

• 1. Projects in triangle

Manufacturer – Transport Company - Ahold Transport

• 2. Transparancy
• Open Cost Calculation
• More than 3 “angles” not easy but possible (LNG!)
• 3. Pilot from start in operational environment

Service, analysis, backup-scenario

• 4. Pilot needs view on
• Positive business case without subsidy
• Large-scale deployment in the foreseeable future

Thanks for your attention!

Believe ANYTHING is possible!
