Tibbett Logistics launches in Romania

UK-based Keswick Enterprises has officially launched a new company in Romania – Tibbett Logistics – following Keswick’s acquisition in December of Delamode Logistics and that company’s joint venture with DHL – DHL  Delamode.
 

These established Romanian businesses have been renamed Tibbett Logistics and Tibbett Retail Services respectively – and together will trade as Tibbett Logistics.

Keswick’s management have been involved in Romania for more than fourteen years and, since 2005, have been shareholders in Delamode and the DHL/Delamode joint venture.  Prior to this, several of Keswick’s senior managers, when part of Tibbett & Britten, led the original Delamode entry into contract logistics in Romania that established the joint venture on behalf of Metro Group.

Tibbett Logistics operates from nine distribution centres across Romania, providing more than 100,000 m² of warehousing in Bucharest, Constanta, Deva and Timisoara, offering a nationwide, broad range of supply chain related services to customers in the domestic and multinational retail industries, as well as FMCG, automotive and other manufacturers.

The company is a pioneer of new supply chain practices and technologies in Romania, such as RF technology interfaced with customers‘ ERP systems, and was the first logistics service provider in the country to implement voice-picking technology in retail warehousing operations.

Distribution operations include a nationwide domestic transport network with 400 road trailers, including double- and triple-temperature reefers, as well as intermodal services.

The company is the only private operator of a rail container terminal in Bucharest, and this summer will open a second, new intermodal terminal in the west of the city.  This will form part of a Tibbett Logistics‘ CEE intermodal network, with terminals across Romania and, in partnership, extending into Austria, Bulgaria, Slovenia and elsewhere.
