Happy Birthdayyyyyyyyy!.🎶 We are in the midst of celebrations at the moment at Logisfashion. You’d think it was just yesterday, as our folks would say. Yet what is true is that for some of our centres 5 years have elapsed since they opened their doors to our customers, becoming thus an essential piece of retail and e-Commerce logistics for standout brands on the market
It was in April 2019 when we began our operations in Ontígola, a tiny town in the province of Toledo with just 4,300 inhabitants. We achieved this via a platform measuring 34,000m2 set aside wholly for e-Commerce logistics, offering a service to the most demanding customers.
Since then, we have constantly taken on more orders and the means to prime more than 50,000 daily shipments and handle more than 12,000,000 articles on average during standard periods. A set of figures than is tripled in campaigns such as Black Friday. In total, over these five years the volume of e-Commerce orders in the hub has reached 19.6 million, with approximately 44 million units!
“Over these 5 years, we have survived a pandemic, the Philomena storm, a fire and countless anecdotes. But by and large, time has been kind to us. We have become acquainted with wonderful people and overseen the professional growth of the workforce. Five years later and we continue to grow and hope to do so for many more.” stated Jose Miguel Garcia, Site Manager at Logisfashion Ontígola I, visibly moved by the milestone.
A hub that has allowed us to make stride forwards in terms of technology and innovation as to streamline processes and which boasts Leed Silver Certification to fulfil the highest standards in terms of quality and energy efficiency parameters, which significantly offsets operational costs, CO2 emissions, water and energy consumption (solar panels to provide in-house power supply, LED lighting, etc.) As well as guaranteeing quality and workers’ comfort.
Logisfashion Toledo: un centro que no se pone límites
The operations at Logisfashion Toledogot underway shortly after as a means of managing our endeavours on a worldwide scale for one of the country’s flagship fashion brands. Its handling capacity started with 80,000m2, which has been gradually increased by more than 20,000m2 as to be able to provide a response last year to:
- 121 million units received for retail.
- 123 million units readied for retail shipment.
- 8,6 million units readied for e-Commerce shipment.
A genuine logistics marathon! And there are still many challenges left for us to meet in this centre, whose limits know no bounds.
Located in the major roadway network of the Industrial estate located in the capital of Castile la Mancha, at Logisfashion Toledo, an investment has been undertaken standing at 40 million euros to have on-hand state-of-the-art technology to ready orders and process articles for their distribution to the retail sector or the end client (e-Commerce).
We boast more than 100 loading bays, as well as innovations such as automated palletizing docks. Without overlooking its most sustainable dimension, having been granted the LEED Silver energy certification.
Juan Manzanedo, Executive CEO and Founder of Logisfashion underscores that “this innovative hub, featuring the latest technological innovations and boasting the highest standards in terms of energy efficiency and environmental sustainability, allows us to offer unmatched quality to our customers while bolstering our position at the forefront of specialist logistics for the fashion industry.
Cabanillas III, the most sustainable hub enjoys its birthday.
And we don’t stop blowing out candles! This time the candles belong to Cabanillas III, which has also recently enjoyed its fifth anniversary since commencing operations in July 2019. With 24 loading / unloading bays, throughout its 22,000m2 there is space devoted to diverse customer needs, such as retail fashion as well as lifestyle e-Commerce.
Therein, worthy of special mention is the personalisation division, with machinery to add patterns, embroidery, pressing or embossing, to offer a value-added service to our customers.
In this facility, 4,000 daily units are processed for retail and a further 2,500 for e-Commerce. Figures that are tripled in periods of peak demand.
Located in Industrial Sector 21 of Cabanillas del Campo (Guadalajara) remarkably close to Cabanillas I, this centre has been granted LEED Gold certification, which certifies its environmental leadership and guarantees energy reduction, thus directly bringing about lower operating costs, CO2 emissions and water consumption.
Three differential centres that have become vital for their innovation, efficacy and respect for the environment, Alongside offering a source of employment to the towns in which they are located.
From within Logisfashion, we would like to congratulate them, one by one, for everything that they have contributed over these five years which have meant that they have flown by, endeavours that have allowed us to continue bolstering our stance as the benchmark logistics partner of the market’s top brands. HAPPY FIFTH BIRTHDAY!
