More space for more opportunities inPrague
Panalpina has grown fast in Czechia the last few years. To keep pace withdemand, the company decided to consolidate its three warehouses into onefacility of almost 7,000 m2 within the modern logistics center in Pavlov(Panattoni Park Prague Airport II), close to Vaclav Havel Airport Prague.Moving to this strategic location allows Panalpina to distribute shipments tocustomers across Europe and the globe more efficiently, thus facilitatingCzech exports.
“Having everything in one place increases our efficiency and bringsunprecedented flexibility and operational synergies. Now we have morededicated space for value-added logistics services so that we can offertailored solutions to our customers,” says Robert Sgariboldi, Panalpina’scountry manager for Czechia and Slovakia.
Panalpina and the site’s developer, Panattoni Europe, invited customers andbusiness partners to the opening ceremony in September 2017. Almost 200people visited the new logistics center which offers value-added logisticsservices for multiple customers, including customs clearance for both importsand exports.
Panalpina’s air cargo volumes flown out of Prague airport regularly exceed200 tons per month, putting the company among the top three Czech airfreight forwarders according to IATA (International Air Transport Association)statistics. By far the highest volumes come from the automotive industry,with telecoms being second, and high-tech in third place.
Services such as pick and pack, labeling, quality inspection, stock levelmanagement with full inventory visibility have become standard, and
Panalpina offers even more. When dispatching telecommunicationsinfrastructure equipment for one of its customers, for example, Panalpina notonly organizes on-site deliveries but also uploads the latest software. “We aregrowing rapidly, even more than expected, so we are already negotiating toextend the space we rent in order to cover all the future needs of ourcustomers,” says Sgariboldi.
