Inauguration of the LOG'S group's new logistics site in Sailly-lez-Cambrai

As part of its AMBITION 2022 development plan, announced in January 2019, Log's Group, a specialist in tailor-made logistics services in all business sectors for almost 20 years, is looking to expand its real estate stock while managing existing stock as effectively as possible, so that it can offer its customers warehouses that are adapted to their activities and made operational very quickly, while respecting the environment. The Group plans to bring 453,000 m2 of new warehouses on stream by 2022.

This Friday, September 27, 2019, Franck Grimonprez, Founder and President of Log'S Group, accompanied by Marie-Thérèse DOIGNEAUX - Mayor of Sailly-Lez-Cambrai, François-Xavier VILLAIN - President of the Communauté d'Agglomération de Cambrai and Mayor of Cambrai, Maryvone RINGEVAL - Mayor of Raillencourt Sainte Olle, Claude LECLERCQ - Mayor of Sancourt and Valérie SIX - Regional Councillor and Xavier BERTRAND, President of the Hauts-de-France region, inaugurated the Log'S Group's brand-new logistics site in Sailly-Lez-Cambrai, the first in the AMBITION 2022 development plan. As part of this development plan, other logistics sites are currently under construction in Louvres, Maubeuge and Denain.

 

"In barely 20 years, Log'S has forged a leading position among logistics service providers, while retaining the values that are dear to me: agility, responsiveness, availability and customer focus. The Sailly-Lez-Cambrai site is the very first of the new sites we are currently building as part of our AMBITION 2022 development plan. This site is also our showcase for new technologies. It marks a turning point in our growth. Disruptive, eco-responsible and respectful of our Group's human values, we're going to accelerate the response to our customers and our customers' customers."

Franck Grimonprez, Founder and Chairman of Groupe Log'S.

This new 54,000 m2 multi-customer site represents an investment of 30 million euros for the company. At the foot of the A2 Paris-Brussels freeway, the site meets the most stringent and demanding requirements in the food industry (HACCP standards, etc.). ROYAL CANIN began operations on May 6, 2019, and currently occupies half of the warehouse.

This site benefits from the latest technologies tested by the Log'S Group and now deployed on an industrial scale. It will also serve as a test site for technologies tested by the Group's "Innovations" department.

Over the past 3 years, Log'S has set up a dedicated "Innovations" department, with a dedicated team and resources. The aim of this "Innovations" department is to find new solutions to better meet new customer expectations, increase information and information visibility for customers, increase process efficiency and improve productivity.

This "Innovations" department is also tasked with improving employee well-being by making work less arduous.
