New Intersport logistics center, southeast Europe

The Intersport South East Europe subsidiary, based in Greece, has opened its new logistics center, run by Trade Logistics S.A. (both companies belonging to the Fourlis group). The new 25,000-square-meter facility in Oinofyta/Boeotia is a fully automated distribution and storage center delivering to Greece, Romania, Bulgaria and Cyprus. The new logistics center serves 123 Intersport brick-and-mortar stores and five e-commerce shops in those countries. The facilities enable the product distribution online – with a 24-hour delivery for e-shop orders and click & collect at the main urban centers for home delivery – as well as offline with speedy dispatch and product fulfillment, which increased by 40 percent compared to the previous Intersport central logistics unit.

Intersport South East Europe hopes for a push of the company’s e-commerce business by minimizing the preparation time for the product dispatching. The company’s customer service system starts with the new central logistics unit. Three interfaces complement it: the new Intersport e-shop, launched in April and the first in the world to embody the global standards of the Intersport international e-shop, the new generation Intersport store concept 2.0 and the omnichannel customer services.
