Ground-breaking for new hub in Luxembourg


Kuehne + Nagel have celebrated the ground-breaking ceremony of a new contract logistics centre in Luxembourg. The event also marked the ten year contract extension between Kuehne + Nagel and On AG, a cooperation that started in 2010.

 

The new contract logistics centre, due to open in the second half of 2020, will serve On as its European distribution centre for both off- and online channels and will play an important role in the international expansion of the Swiss company that specialises in performance running shoes.

 

"In view of the increasing demand for pan-European e-fulfilment services for dynamically growing companies like On, Kuehne + Nagel is positioning itself as an integrated logistics provider in Europe. Kuehne + Nagel's innovative and digital solutions are crucial to meet this increasing demand," says Tobias Jerschke, managing director of Kuehne + Nagel BeLux.

 

The new facility is ideally located in Luxembourg, within close proximity to highways and airports that enable fast access to all European destinations. With 20 loading bays, the total warehouse capacity will be 20,000 sqm and be extendable up to 30,000 sqm. (mw)
