Agrati relies on Kuehne + Nagel to outsource its distribution centre
New four-year contract for Kuehne + Nagel in Italy The newly-built warehouse in Trezzo sull’ Adda, 30 kilometres northeast of Milan, which was specifically designed by Kuehne + Nagel, centralises on more than 17,000 sqm all of Agrati’s finished product inventories. A site extension up to 27,000 sqm is planned for 2010. Under the agreement, Kuehne + Nagel is in charge of inbound shuttling from Agrati’s production facility in Veduggio con Colzano (Mi), warehousing, order picking, order preparation, labelling of boxes and dispatching. In a next implementation phase, operations will also encompass inbound quality checks and packaging activities involving different packaging boxes. For such services Kuehne + Nagel will use about 20 manual stations, 35 semi-automatic machineries and 6 packaging machineries. Quelle: Kuehne + Nagel |
