9th November 2017
Ekol France has opened two new branches which the company says will cover most activities in the logistical environment.
“One branch is in Paris where we will mostly be concentrated on national and international distribution. The facility has a 1,600m² warehouse, truck parking for 20 vehicles and a heavy truck garage that could facilitate the maintenance of trucks. It will also manage the railway connection between Paris and Sete and even develop more connections with the north of Europe,” said Tuğrul Sarıkahya, Country Manager France.
The second branch is in Lyon. Said the company: “It will be mostly a freight forwarding agency and it will be able to absorb flow from every direction. It will also be specialized in cross docking operations and express services. With a 2000m² warehouse and truck parking (for 20 transport means), these activities will be easy to manage and to respond at any requirements of our clients. It will also have its own customs service.”
“The goal of Ekol in Lyon is to create new traffic lines to Eastern and Southern countries in Europe,” added Tuğrul Sarıkahya.
Ekol has operated in France since 2012. With the growth rate of 90% in 2016, Ekol France offers road, sea and rail connections.
