Aditro Logistics doubles their capacity with a new warehouse at Hauan Næringspark in Kopstad, Norway

Aditro Logistics, the Nordic region’s leading carrier-independent contract logistics provider, will double their Norwegian warehousing capacity by building a new logistics terminal in Kopstad, 75 kilometers south of Oslo.

The new warehouse is a part of Aditro Logistics aggressive growth strategy. It will replace the old warehouse in Stokke and 2 other external warehouses where Aditro has rented warehouse capacity from other suppliers.

“The new warehouse will increase our efficiency a lot since we will have our entire operation in one place instead of in 3 different locations as we have today. This means that we can be even more competitive in the future”, says Rune Edvåg, Managing director, Aditro Logistics Norway.

The new warehouse is planned to be ready in June 2010 and it is situated in a strategic location close to the motorway E18. The new warehouse will have a capacity of 28 000 loading pallets.

“We have chosen this strategic location since it is close to the most important motorway in Norway and to the harbours where we receive goods for our customers from all over the world. This will improve our customers Supply chain management significantly”, continues Edvåg.

“We are very glad that Aditro Logistics has decided to establish their new terminal in Re kommune (Re Municipality). This is a clear signal that the location is interesting. We have a number of other companies that are considering to move to Re”, says Thorvald Hillestad, chairman of Re kommune.

“ The new warehouse gives us great benefits as a customer. The new location and the increased capacity will help us to improve our market position”, says Jan Gustavsen, CEO of Simba Dickie, one of Aditro Logistics Nordic customers.
