Logistics management
Its two Spanish platforms in Madrid and Cuenca and its international platforms in Hong Kong, Mexico, and Russia handle the company’s storage and distribution. Tendam’s logistic efficiency is based on multi-brand distribution which results in a considerable decrease in transport and deliveries outside of business hours in order not to hinder the activity and to minimise the effects of traffic and pollution in urban areas.
The main logistics centre is located in Madrid and acts as a franchise consolidation centre for merchandise from suppliers in the EuroMediterranean region. It is the sole distributor for all corporate stores in Europe. This semi-automatic sustainable logistics centre has 135,000 m2 of space for storage and is where 91 million garments are managed per year. It receives merchandise from suppliers from all countries. From there, it provides stock to 100% of its own stores and 70% of franchised stores of all of Tendam’s brands as well as two of the group’s e-commerce warehouses in Spain and Russia.
On the one hand, there is a multi-brand consolidation centre in Hong Kong where merchandise from Asian suppliers is distributed to the group’s franchise network and its own stores in Mexico through crossdocking. In addition, in the Central American country there is a specific distribution centre for deliveries to the group’s own stores and the Mexican franchises.
