DP World launches logistics hub in Italy

DP World has launched its first Fast Moving Consumer Goods contract logistics operation in Italy, opening a 22,000 square metre temperature-controlled, multi-customer facility at Castel San Pietro Terme near Bologna.

The hub is designed to serve customers across the food and beverage industry, e-commerce and consumer goods sectors, combining warehousing, transport, e-commerce fulfilment and value-added logistics services to provide integrated end-to-end supply chain solutions for customers in Italy and across Europe.

The operation was established through a strategic partnership with Alce Nero, an Italian organic food company that serves as the site’s anchor customer.

Under the arrangement, DP World manages key elements of Alce Nero’s logistics operations including warehousing, e-commerce fulfilment and transportation.
