If the last couple of years has shown anything, it’s the vital importance of strong logistics. So it’s good news to see that Italian kit and accessories firm Acerbis has opened a brand new warehouse in Calcinate near Bergamo, which should improve supply into the UK.
According to the firm, the operation of the new logistics centre is based on five key areas: rationalization of existing spaces, speed to respond to market needs, creation of synergies, development and environmental sustainability.
The new building covers 20,465m2, with 26 loading bays and space for 19,000 pallets. It’s been built with the environment in mind too, with LED lighting and solar panels, and incorporates a high-tech radiofrequency stock control system.
