At the heart of Europe, Radial\u2019s fulfillment center in Halle, Germany<\/a>, has become a cornerstone for brands seeking a logistics partner that combines local strength with European reach.

Located in central Germany, Halle fulfillment center<\/a> sits within immediate reach of major logistics hubs such as DHL, Hermes, and DPD – all just minutes away. This proximity allows Radial to push cut-off times late into the evening, ensuring that 85% of parcels across Germany arrive the very next day, and Eastern European markets are served within 24 hours.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a unique advantage\u201d <\/strong><\/em>explains Site Manager Stephan Friebel<\/a>. \u201c<\/em>I\u2019ve been in this business for over two decades, and I\u2019ve never seen such consistently late cut-offs combined with such high next-day delivery success rates.<\/em>“<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

Flexible Automation for Sportswear, Fashion & Health & Beauty<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

55,000 square meters of logistics floor space, with more than 350,000 bin locations and a semi-automated setup tailored for industries like sportswear, fashion, health & beauty<\/strong>, and jewelry<\/strong>. A 5.5-kilometre conveyor snakes through the facility, linking pick towers to packing benches, supported by advanced pick-to-light systems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

This hybrid model of manual expertise and automation offers the best of both worlds. Workers can focus on their zones, while the conveyor system optimizes the flow of goods, cutting unnecessary movement and maximizing efficiency. \u201cThe setup is not only efficient but also cost-effective,\u201d <\/strong><\/em>adds Stephan Friebel<\/a>. \u201cIt allows us to provide competitive pricing without compromising service quality.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

For Denny Kalmring<\/a><\/strong>, Sales Director for the DACH region, Halle\u2019s role in fashion fulfillment is especially close to heart. With over 22 years of industry experience, he emphasizes the parallels between fashion and logistics: \u201cBoth are fast-moving, trend-driven, and unforgiving when it comes to timing.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
