Development, Sustainability and a better Customer Experience The investment made, totaling over 70 million Euros, is a strategic move for three main reasons.

Sustainability

A more performing and flexible distribution network will allow collection purchases to be managed more efficiently and effectively. This is the first step aimed at reducing the carbon footprint of the entire production chain: a more efficient collection purchase and distribution network will make more efficient, and therefore more sustainable anything used to manufacture the same collections (water and energy consumption, transport, etc.).

A better customer service all over the world

The project will highlight the ability to make the right product be delivered at the right time in the stores, thus directly influencing customer satisfactio.

Supporting the growth of our brands The new distribution hub will be able to boost further its performance, supporting the growth of our brands for the next 10 years.

Competing for leadership: the journey we have undertaken A brand supply chain strategy

A customized distribution model for each brand, thanks to the flexibility the new Ce.Di in Gatteo offers, which translated into a customized service for each store.

A new distribution model

The distribution hub is only the tip of the iceberg of a new distribution model based on data analysis, efficiency and speed.

A business model moving from push to pull

Thanks to the speed and the logics of the new distribution hub, the strategy is to move from a “push” business model to a “pull” one, more customeroriented and inspired by customers.

A new distribution model

The new distribution hub will be much more performing than the current solutions: higher speed, more productivity, simplified processes, people fully supported in their work and focusing on strategic activities.

• The parcel sorting capacity will be up to 520,000 parcels per week, compared to the current 180,000 ones. The entire central distribution will be gathered in one warehouse, where today there are three.

• The new distribution model will provide for a flexible service level, customized for each store and market, thanks to state-of-the-art technology and software.

• At the same time, the new distribution hub will act as an “accelerator” for many projects aimed at improving customer service increasingly more.
