Arvato takes over logistics and fulfilment for Fermopoint
Fermopoint, which operates a nationwide network of pick-up stations for online commerce in Italy, has entrusted Arvato Supply Chain Solutions with the logistics and fulfilment of its delivery and pickup service. In Italy, Arvato manages and controls all services along the entire supply chain, from ordering to returns management.
"Our role in the process begins as soon as the online order to a Fermopoint station is ready for shipment," says Marco Galtelli, head of sales and marketing of Arvato Supply Chain Solutions in Italy.
"We then store the shipments in our warehouse in the Bergamo area, bundle them according to destination, label them and distribute them to the respective pickup stations." Arvato relies on a mix of standard and express carriers to manage its transport services. (mw)
