Menlo expands Holland facility

Menlo expands Holland facility    Global third party logistics provider Menlo Worldwide on Thursday announced a major expansion of its European multiclient logistics center in Eersel, Holland, where completion of a 100,000-square-foot annex has increased available capacity to 350,000 square feet.
   The expansion, the third for the center since it opened in 1997, added 30 percent more space for inventory management, fulfillment operations, warehouse, distribution and supply chain management services. It addresses Menlo's growing business volumes, and the strong demand for outsourced logistics services in the Brabant region of the Netherlands, which is centrally located in a strategic triangle of major European air and ocean gateways, the company said.
   Eersel is Menlo's largest operation in Europe. It serves eight major global customers in industries ranging from apparel and footwear, sporting goods, medical equipment, contract manufacturing for consumer electronics, computer networking, GPS navigation and surveying systems and high-performance automotive products.
