Ghibli Ltd., a freight forwarding and warehouse logistics company, has opened a new logistics centre in Debrecen, in the Southern Economic Zone. The hall, located near the international airport and covering almost 23,000 square metres, is planned to be used for storing finished goods from next month. It will both serve the local economy and ensure the continuity of the regional supply chain.
The finishing touches are being put on the monumental hall, which from May will be used primarily for storing finished goods by Ghibli Ltd., a company that provides road, rail, sea, and air freight transport, warehouse logistics, and customs services.
“Debrecen will become a distribution logistics centre in Hungary, which will be able to supply not only the city but also the surrounding countries. In terms of logistics, Debrecen is becoming a potential place, and we would like to participate in this,” Managing Director of Ghibli Ltd., Zoltán Szabó, summarised.
The hall, which is almost 23,000 square metres, has been designed by the Xanga Group using the latest industrial technology in a modern and sustainable way to meet the most modern logistical requirements.
“In the last 25 years, we have not developed such a service in Debrecen, as we have not seen market demand for such a large-scale, specialised service. “In the future, however, large industrial companies coming to the city will be able to serve market needs cost-effectively from specialised logistics big boxes,” Chairman and CEO of Xanga Group, István Herdon, said.
Mayor László Papp said that the industrial, technological, and logistics investments in the Southern Industrial Zone will help strengthen the local economy and ensure the stability of regional supply chains. Ghibli Ltd. is also fulfilling this role.
“The development of industry is inconceivable without the development of logistics. Production, manufacturing, the operation of supply chains, access to export markets – all this is unthinkable without efficient and modern logistics systems,” László Papp said.
Ghibli Ltd., together with the logistics centre in Debrecen, already operates on more than 120,000 square metres. They plan to lease two more warehouses this year and next year, which will double their storage capacity.
