In-house logistics

There are multiple advantages to in-house management.

Fixed costs become variable and certain; moreover, by better using the areas you already own, costs for new storage areas can be cut. If necessary, we can also arrange the transfer of equipment already in use.

By doing so, costs for transferring to other warehouses are reduced to zero.

Quality and service levels improve: productivity, flexibility, and reliability increase. Logistics expertise is constantly updated. But there’s more.

The proximity to production optimizes the flow of the supply chain.

Existing human resources are enhanced and trained is provided, if necessary.

Not to mention that our startup times are reduced: in a couple of months we are able to start at full regime, and you can monitor the results, KPI by KPI.
