Intratuin is closing its distribution centre in Venlo and will henceforth supply its seventy garden centres from Den Bosch. The retail chain will outsource the warehousing activities there to ID Logistics.
The distribution centre in Den Bosch is currently being built by WDP (Warehouses de Pauw) and Heembouw. The building covers a total of 57,000 square metres, of which 23,000 square metres will be leased by ID Logistics. The remaining space is for online wholesaler Sanitairwinkel.nl and logistics service provider Spierings Smart Logistics.
Closure dc Venlo
The move from Venlo to Den Bosch is planned for October, through which Intratuin will supply its branches in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany. ID Logistics expects to employ around 50 people there. The distribution centre in Venlo, which covers 70,000 square metres, will close after the move. What this means for the staff in Venlo is still unclear.
