ALSO opens state-of-the-art logistics center in Finland

“The e-commerce warehouse is a state-of-the-art example of efficient logistics. It enables us to fulfill our customers’ requests quicker and to provide a broader service offering, strengthening and expanding our number one market position in Finland,” said Gustavo Möller-Hergt, CEO of ALSO Holding AG.

B2B customers such as Etailers benefit from innovative handling processes and flexibility. On behalf of its customers, ALSO offers to deliver directly from the warehouse all the way to their customers even in small packages.

The warehouse spans 17,000 square meters of space amounting to the size of approximately two football fields. It will consume around 50 percent less energy per square meter and operative costs will decrease by approximately 25 percent compared to ALSO’s previous warehouse. 60 jobs will be transferred from the original location to the new warehouse. In its pan-European logistics network with almost 300,000 square meters ALSO processes up to 14 million packages a year of various sizes, from small USB sticks to large-format printers.
