Vente-Exclusive expands by 3,000 m²

The Vente-Exclusive e-shop moved into one of our warehouses in Lot in 2016. WDP offered it the space, literally and figuratively, to get its internal logistics activities in order. And it succeeded because just two years after moved in, this successful business was bursting at the seams and major expansions were in the pipelines.

Major expansion

Since Vente-Exclusive was launched in 2006, the company has grown by around 20 to 50% annually. When the e-shop decided to take over the majority of the logistics activities itself, it opted for a property of 6,000 m², half of which was already being leased up to now. Now that everything’s moving at full speed, Vente-Exclusive is filling up the other half of the property. Since the growth curve doesn’t seem to be changing directions any time soon, there are also plans to build a mezzanine. This will double the entire surface area in the long term and the Returns department will move into the same building with the rest of the company.

Perfect location

In addition to the building’s flexibility, the location is also a major asset for Vente-Exclusive. The central location close to Brussels is useful for transporting purchased products. Moreover, the logistics site is within walking distance from the offices and close to the station. This is handy for the 100 employees who have to process over 80,000 orders from around the entire country every week.    

Work hard, play hard

When laying out the interior of the warehouse, Vente-Exclusive also naturally took the logistics employees, who spend each day sorting the incoming products, repackaging these, and loading them onto trucks, into account. That’s why a cosy seating area, gym, and a back garden with a barbecue were also added. The spacious, modern, well-lighted warehouse also gives Vente-Exclusive the opportunity to organise large meetings in-house.
