Geodis announced that earlier in December, it officially put a newly built multi-user logistics facility into operation in Aurach, in the district of Ansbach, Germany.

The new facility has direct transport links to the Nuremberg metropolitan region.

In a statement, Geodis said the facility has 26,757 Euro pallet spaces in the high-bay warehouse and 9,000 m² of block storage space and is equipped with a photovoltaic system.

"With the new logistics centre, GEODIS optimizes its market access to one of the economically strongest regions in Bavaria and continues its Europe-wide expansion as a global transport and logistics service provider," it said.

Geodis noted that the warehouse, with 28 loading ramps and 4 ground-level gates, the new logistics centre offers Geodis' e-commerce customers a wide range of services for the distribution of, for example, large electrical appliances, consumer electronics and furniture.

"In terms of transport links, our new logistics centre in Aurach is directly connected to the A6 federal motorway, which is part of the important Paris-Prague long-distance connection," said Antje Lochmann, managing director of GEODIS Contract Logistics activities in Germany.

"The project development and the construction of the new plant took place in close cooperation with more than ten companies. Added to this were the expertise of Geodis colleagues from locations in France, Italy and Germany, who provided excellent support to the team in Aurach by adding their knowledge and experience during the planning and technical setup of our new WMS system," Lochmann added.

Geodis has a global network spanning nearly 170 countries and is ranked 7th in its sector across the world. In 2021, GEODIS generated €10.9 billion in revenue.
