Global flow equipment manufacturer Metso recently announced it will be evaluating the potential centralization of its warehousing operations in Europe in the near future. During the consultations, Metso will consider different options related to the continuation of its current warehouse operations in nine locations in Norway, Sweden, the UK, France, Spain, the Czech Republic, Turkey and Russia.
“Our target is to enable world-class logistics with easy scalability of operations,” commented Jarkko Aro, senior vice-president for customer logistics at Metso.
“Flexible, state-of-the-art warehouse operations would allow orders to be collected and dispatched to customers directly from central warehouses. It would also enable considerable savings in end-to-end freight costs and reduced CO2 emissions.”
