"By expanding the space by another thirty-eight thousand square meters, we are preparing storage capacity for further growth in the coming years. At the same time, we are concentrating our existing warehouse areas in one place, which will also speed up logistics and shipping processes. The new premises will allow us to increase the stock of large household appliances and televisions and give us a great deal of freedom. We will be able to cover possible supply outages from manufacturers more quickly and the customer will have the goods immediately available, "said Libor Křížka, DATART's director of logistics.

The seller will start moving logistics capacity from its current smaller warehouses in the second half of this year. It also plans to introduce automatic trucks that will bring the goods from the storage location to the shipping ramp. "Due to the large area of ​​the warehouse, we will handle long crossings with automatic trucks. We will test the first two trucks in our logistics center in Jirny in April, and then introduce the next in an expanded warehouse, ”adds Libor Křížka.
