New PepsiCo central warehouse works already in full swing

PepsiCo's newest central warehouse located in the P3 Mszczonów park is not only the largest warehouse of the PepsiCo’s distribution network but also the largest facility of this type completed in Poland in Q1 2020. The cubic capacity of the warehouse is so large that if one wanted to fill the building up with cans of the brand's flagship drink, as many as 2 billion of them would be needed. The area of the facility is in excess of 58,000 sqm which enables storing about 60,000 pallets at any one time. Each day, about 5,000 pallets are moved out of the building and the same many pallets get moved in, arriving from the company's production facilities. After the consolidation of logistics processes, which used to be carried out in a few scattered locations, PepsiCo's central warehouse in P3 Mszczonów is already operating in full swing. 

"Over the course of the last few years, the implementation of the new central warehouse has been our strategic project, and a pivotal element of the modernization of the finished product storage system in Poland. Thanks to the fact that the P3 handed the facility over to us within the framework of the agreed timetable, we had enough time to move to it the pre-planned scale of our operations and to be able to operate effectively and without interruptions in the difficult time of the pandemic. Currently, as much as over 85 percent of the target operations are already conducted in Mszczonów. The consolidation of various processes, which until recently were carried out in other dispersed facilities, has proven an excellent decision, and also a great success in this demanding time,” Pawel Poniedzielnik, Senior Logistics Manager at PepsiCo, said.
