GXO Logistics, Inc. (NYSE: GXO), the world’s largest pure-play contract logistics provider, announced today that it has won a contract to operate Fluidra’s first distribution center in France. Fluidra, a global leader in the pool and wellness industry, will use the facility to improve the service level and quality of deliveries to its customers in France and Belgium.
“We are delighted to provide our advanced logistics services for Fluidra’s first distribution center in France,” said Bernard Wehbe, GXO’s Managing Director, France. “We are using our vast experience and expertise to optimize Fluidra’s distribution center operations, lowering its costs and providing improved service and quality to its customers.”
