Bolloré Logistics has something to smile about as the French forwarder opened its brand-new warehouse and distribution centre in Thailand on 8 June.

Nicknamed SMILE HUB, the fulfilment facility is situated in Bangplee—-23 kilometres away from Suvarnabhumi International Airport in Bangkok. It offers an area of 11,000 square metres and was designed for the perfume, cosmetics and luxury sector.

Bollore said the new hub, designed by Frasers Property Industrial Thailand, was built in line with the company’s corporate social responsibility (CSR) commitments, featuring a smart lighting system, solar panels, and water-saving equipment. The forwarder is looking towards its green building certification by the end of 2022, becoming one of the first warehouses in Thailand to do so.
