Simplify, the business ecosystem for online stores, said on May 25 that it expanded its logistics operations with a new 1,500 sqm e-fulfilment center in Cluj-Napoca, northwestern Romania.

The new facility, which provides logistics services for online stores, required an investment of EUR 40,000. Customers benefit from integrated services for the entire supply chain, from supply transportation to product reception, storage, packaging, and labelling, as well as access to the receipt of returned products.

“The opening of the new e-fulfilment center in Cluj-Napoca contributes to the company’s growth strategy, as we expand our offer of fulfilment and logistics services for the Romanian e-commerce market,” said Carmen Vasilescu, Logistics Director.

“We are pleased to have customers who have tripled their volumes compared to the same period last year, and we expect to end the year with a 20% increase in turnover. Therefore, in order to best meet their needs, we want to continue to grow and diversify services in line with the company’s strategic investments over the last year. As a result, the development of the Simplify platform and integrated digital solutions in warehouses will continue to be our top priorities in the coming years,” she added.

Following an investment of approximately EUR 500,000, the company continues to develop the solution for integrating supply chain services to provide customers with easy access to information. Real-time data, such as the status of all supply shipments, packages to reach customers who ordered online, or stocks and parcels to be delivered, can be viewed via the Simplify portal.

The company also said that it is gradually investing in automation and warehousing, and the goal for this year is to make a number of acquisitions and changes to the Simplify platform.

Simplify, the solution based on integrating technology and operational flows, currently processes over 30,000 orders per month, a 55% increase over the same period last year.

Its portfolio increased by 15% year-over-year. Customers include Sneaker Industry, Fashion Lifestyle & Distribution, Sport Couture, GBB, Senses, and others.
