It is strategically located around the main markets for fast-moving consumer goods, retail, technology and electronics, fashion and lifestyle, and other categories of goods and services.

“By the end of this year, we will have a total storage area of ​​350 square meters in Latin America, with locations in several countries in the region, and we have great ambition for the coming years.
