In terms of the three-year contract, TNT Logistics will manage the logistics activities for non-seasonal items such as electronics and textile products to SMA and Cityper supermarkets.

In addition to storage and distribution of these items, TNT Logistics will handle over a million promotional consignments each year, as well as 2,000 products destined for 150 outlets in the Italian regions of Lombardy, Veneto and Lazio.
