One distinguishing feature of Barcelona/Catalonia is that it has a powerful logistics cluster with the presence of many global operators (DHL, Schenker, Kuehne & Nagel, DSV, Panalpina, Rhenus, etc.) and numerous operators specialised by geographical areas, industries and products.

This logistics capability allows interested companies to make use of initial advice on general issues, such as the structure of its new logistics distribution network. If necessary, it can also provide them with advice on how to reengineer their current logistics distribution network, how to optimise the location of warehouses, how to use customs facilities to optimise commercial processes and how to estimate and benchmark cost savings involved in the new proposal, not to mention the ability to analyse and redesign the entire supply chain.

Such advice is a first important step to avoid taking decisions based on biased information and costs and to design and implement the adequate solution for the company’s interests.

In particular, Barcelona/Catalonia has specialised logistics services for a number of economic and industrial sectors in which it is the best option to become a European/Mediterranean Distribution Centre. These sectors are fashion and footwear, electronic products, industrial products and consumer durables, automotive and chemicals.

If your company operates in one or more of these sectors, Barcelona European Logistics Center can provide you with information and help you to prepare a specific offer for your case, with no cost or commitment on your part. To this end, BARCELOC has the support of top professionals from Barcelona’s logistics cluster.
