LOGISTICS, SUPPLY CHAIN AND DISTRIBUTION NETWORK
Farm/factory to shelf
Our in-house logistics and distribution network is one of our key competitive advantages and drivers of best value for money to our consumers providing a wide product range and consistent supply of fresh, high-quality products.
Our distribution centres are able to handle everything from dry groceries to fresh and perishable produce with the same efficiency. By controlling the logistics, supply (and maintenance) chain we are able to ensure wellstocked shelves, uninterrupted supply to stores, fresh produce and speedy turnaround on maintenance issues. We own both the distribution centres and the vehicle fl eet for maximum effi ciencies.
