Hermes takes on Northern Italy site

[ July 20, 2023   //   ]

The Otto Group’s logistics service provider Hermes Fulfilment is to take over a dispatch centre in Valdengo, Northern Italy, around 100kms west of Milan. The site specialises processing low-volume product ranges and employs around 230 people. Valdengo will mostly be used for processing returns from Southern Europe for the online retailer, About You as well as existing third-party business.

It covers an area of 12,500sq m and includes a 1,500sq m high-bay warehouse with a capacity of 5,000 pallet spaces together with a 235-metre-long sorting machine.

The site in the Piedmont region was previously run by fashion brand Bonprix, which is transferring its main operation to Hermes’ facility in Haldensleben in Germany.
