Our customer

Our client is a major player in the pharmaceutical and dermo-cosmetics sectors, with a strong presence in France and operations in more than 100 countries worldwide.

Operating across highly regulated product categories, the group requires strict compliance with pharmaceutical standards while maintaining agility across domestic and international distribution flows.

Context

Prior to the transformation, the organisation relied on a multi-site logistics architecture in the South of France to manage its pharmaceutical and dermo-cosmetics activities.

With growing volumes and increasing operational complexity, the group launched a strategic logistics programme to simplify its supply chain and improve efficiency, flexibility and sustainability.

Key objectives included:

  • Rethinking the overall logistics setup

  • Reducing inter-site transport and travelled distances

  • Reorganising distribution centres

  • Implementing a new IT infrastructure

  • Strengthening environmental performance

A central ambition was to create a new primary logistics site close to production facilities in order to streamline operations and reduce unnecessary flows.

Our contribution

  • #Warehousing
  • #Handling
  • #Transport

Building on a long-standing partnership, we implemented a centralised “One-Roof” logistics solution at a dedicated site in north-central France.

Two dedicated cells within a 90,000 m² platform were adapted to meet strict pharmaceutical and dermo-cosmetics regulatory requirements, with 7,200 m² allocated to the client’s activities.

The scope includes:

  • Receipt of flows from internal production sites

  • Multi-temperature storage (2–8°C and 15–25°C)

  • Order preparation (parcels and pallets)

  • Preparation of export shipments (air, sea and road)

  • Replenishment of national distribution centres and international subsidiaries

  • Daily temperature-controlled shuttles between sites and freight forwarders

All strategic logistics operations are managed under one roof, providing a single point of contact and full compliance with pharmaceutical, dermo-cosmetics and classified product requirements.

One-Roof integration driving sustainable performance:

  • Operational Centralisation

    Consolidation of activities on a single site reduces complexity and improves coordination.

  • Flow Optimisation

    Elimination of unnecessary inter-site transport and distance reduction across the network.

  • Environmental Improvement

    Significant reduction in CO₂ emissions and overall logistics footprint.

  • Process Simplification

    Single-provider governance streamlines operations and enhances visibility.

  • Increased Agility

    Improved responsiveness across domestic and export supply chain flows.
