TNT, one of the world’s largest courier companies, has won a two-year contract to service the Mexx clothing chain.
The service will cover the transport of clothing prototypes (samples used to verify the designer’s vision during production). Shipments will be collected from Mexx suppliers in Asia and the Middle East and delivered to TNT’s headquarters in Amsterdam. TNT is also responsible for transporting sales samples from Asia to Mexx’s main distribution center in Voorschoten, the Netherlands. TNT provides deliveries to showrooms in Europe, where the designs are presented to retail chain representatives. Among the most important recipients are Germany, France, Belgium, and the Scandinavian countries. For transport within the continent, TNT uses its European Road Network.
– Express shipments with a guaranteed delivery time help Mexx Europe meet the requirements of the fashion industry, which is subject to rapid changes, and strengthen our competitiveness. The transparency of transport processes allows us to focus on our core business – says Sjoerd Kampinga, Senior Purchase Manager at Mexx.
