Representatives of Lineage’s European cold storage network were in high profile at its spacious booth during the recently held SIAL exhibition in Paris. Among members of the team, Annemieke Honig, senior marketing manager, was on the scene informing visitors how the world’s largest operator of public refrigerated warehouses helps food retailers reduce complexity, improve availability and lower supply chain costs by consolidating frozen products from multiple suppliers into a single, coordinated inbound flow. The company specializes in streamlining truckload deliveries to arrive when and where they are needed.
Working from more than 70 facilities across Europe, Lineage’s strategically positioned warehouses and integrated transport assets are close to major markets. Benefits to retail food stores include fewer inbound vehicles arriving at distribution centers, reduced congestion and handling activity, improved vehicle utilization and lower transport costs, and better delivery consistency and predictability.
Globally headquartered in Novi, Michigan, USA, with regional European headquarters in the Netherlands, Spain and Poland, Lineage’s widespread international network consists of more than 485 cold stores offering approximately 86 million square feet and 3.1 million cubic feet of capacity throughout North America, Europe and Asia-Pacific countries.
