Logistics Insight Asia - Industry News, 8/2/2010

Groupe Auchan awards Agility with the freight management of its textile business from Bangladesh to France. Agility provides a retail logistics solution including freight forwarding and destination services, as well as container utilization management services to the former.

The solution includes consolidation services and provision of detailed visibility at order and item level. A dedicated team on the ground in Bangladesh provides cargo consolidation services for 40 Auchan suppliers.

Groupe Auchan’s decision was based on Agility’s ability to provide an enhanced supply chain solution, including the set-up and implementation of standard operating procedures specifically adapted to the former’s requirements.
