The Vivre logistics centers have been progressively expanded in the 7 years since the opening. Starting from a warehouse of approximately 1,000 m2, at present the storage spaces occupy a total area of 15,000 m2 usable and have a capacity of 260,000 products. The total value of investments in technical equipment such as shelves, logistics equipment, handling and storage, is 500,000 euros in 2019. The processing capacity has increased exponentially, daily 25,000 products and 4,000 packages are running on average.
"In the peaks of demand - October, November and December - when up to 30,000 products can be processed per day, storage space becomes a challenge. To solve this aspect, we aim the optimization of the current space and the efficiency of the operational processes, but also the temporary rental of some storage centers. This year, the new space taken over has a total area of 6,500 m2 usable and a capacity of about 9,000 bulky pieces of furniture (sofas, corners, cabinets, etc.). We ensure the transport of orders according to the size of the products through the courier companies specialized in the delivery of furniture pieces. We are currently collaborating with 14 courier companies and are in negotiations to reach 19 partners in the next period, as we expect a significant increase in the volume of orders during the Black Sale and Black Friday campaigns", said Ciprian Sirbu, Vivre Logistics Manager.
