The Antwerp hub caters for the North European market and joins APP’s three existing logistical and warehousing hubs with 10,000 sqm of capacity in Italy, 3,000 sqm in Spain and 3,000 sqm in Latvia. APP has now extended shorter lead time capacity to cover the entirety of the Southern, Central, Northern and Eastern European markets, with the Latvian facility in particular offering additional reach into the Russian market.
Danilo Benvenuti, Regional Sales Director for Asia Pulp and Paper said: “One of APP’s fundamental goals is to support our customers in growing their businesses profitably. Therefore, we are pleased to be introducing greater product availability and shorter lead times. As a result of our shorter lead times, our customers will be able to reduce their stockholding requirements and free up cashflow – something we believe is a critical advantage in today’s competitive market.”
