Barry Callebaut to build new Global Distribution Center in Belgium
Barry Callebaut Group has furthered anchored Barry Callebaut’s activities in Belgium by building a new Global Distribution Center (GDC) in Lokeren, Belgium.
The new GDC, comprising of a low bay and a fully automated high bay warehouse (together more than 60,000 m²), will serve as a logistics hub for the global distribution of chocolate produced by Barry Callebaut: This includes the vast majority of products in the Gourmet & Specialties and Decorations segment, as well as solid chocolate for Food Manufacturers customers. The new GDC allows Barry Callebaut to consolidate its activities currently located across several locations in the region of Aalst, Belgium. This will optimize and increase the efficiency of Barry Callebaut’s product distribution.
