Metro Cash&Carry Romania has completed a 12 million-euro investment in a 10,000m2 logistics and distribution warehouse, being the first large commercial group to embrace a growth strategy in this direction.
"In 2002, we conducted a survey that showed we were incurring losses accounting for 5-7% of turnover, because of logistics and distribution problems, such as the lack of certain product categories in some of our stores," said Bert Van der Velde, a member of the Metro Cash&Carry Romania Board and the company's administration director.
