About the organisation
Chane is a European liquid bulk storage partner operating at the heart of industrial and energy supply chains. With a network of 21 terminals across 6 countries, the company provides critical infrastructure and services that enable customers to store, handle and move essential liquid products safely, efficiently and reliably.

Chane serves a diversified customer base of approximately 120 clients, ranging from large multinational corporations to mid‑sized industrial players. These customers operate in sectors such as fuels, chemicals and emerging energy carriers, where supply chain reliability and operational excellence are business‑critical. Chane combines strong local operational expertise with an increasing focus on central coordination and commercial excellence.

With the appointment of a new CEO, Chane has sharpened its ambition and strategic direction. The company is transitioning from a network of largely autonomous terminals towards a more integrated European platform, supported by changes in the operating model and a more structured, data‑driven way of working. The commercial organization is being strengthened, with a clearer focus on strategic account management, customer segmentation and value‑based selling.

This transformation is driven by a clear ambition: to become the leading tank storage company in Europe. Key priorities include expanding capacity, strengthening customer partnerships and building a more customer‑centric commercial platform, supported by selective M&A to accelerate growth.

At the core of Chane’s culture are five values that guide behaviour and decision‑making across the organization:  Keep earning, Be safe, Look to solve, Make sure and Dare to execute .

Together, these elements define Chane as a company in transition, evolving from a strong operational backbone to a fully integrated, commercially driven and future‑oriented European platform, positioned at the intersection of industrial storage and the energy transition.
