DHL opens new logistics center in Estonia
Today marks the opening of DHL Estonia’s new logistics center on Betooni Street for the processing of goods transported over land. The new center, much larger than the existing one, will provide complex logistics services ranging from handling and loading goods to third-party logistics and cross-docking.
Kärt says the new logistics center will allow them to process large quantities of goods more efficiently: while only 9 loading bridges were available in the previous terminal, the new center boasts 32. This will improve the time it takes to process goods and reduce supply times.
The first stage of the logistics center comprises a 3000 sqm terminal and a 4000 sqm warehouse. Potential future expansion of the terminal and warehouse space has been taken into account, with the center’s 30,000 sqm of territory presenting plenty of opportunities. Investment in the construction of the center exceeded 100 million kroons.
The grand opening of the center took place at 3.00 pm 26.02 and was attended by almost 300 DHL Freight clients, partners and investors and the center’s builders. Giving the opening speech will be DHL Freght Managing Director, UK/IE, Nordics, CEE & EMA Wolfgang W. Dölger.
