GLS opens logistics centre in Hungary
General Logistics System, a pan-European company that provides parcel distribution services, has opened a new 5,000-sqm logistics centre in Hungary’s Alsónémedi.
GLS, headquartered in Amsterdam, launched constructions last June and spent a total of EUR 6.2 million to finish the facility.
The new unit of GLS Hungary operates with a staff of 100 employees and can deliver 12 million packages a year, business daily Világgazdaság said.
The logistics centre will give home to the Central European headquarters of GLS, where they will co-ordinate Czech and Slovakian subsidiaries from.
GLS announced a month ago today that it entered into a network partnership with Bulgaria’s Interlogistica Ltd., which started realising nationwide distribution for all GLS companies in February 2007. The network of GLS, one of the three largest CEP (courier, express and parcel) service providers in Europe, now covers 35 states.
