Wine box business uses Europa know-how

TO HELP deliver an efficient logistics management process, the company has partnered with Europa Warehouse, a division of ambitious independent logistics operator Europa Worldwide Group.

The team, located in Europa’s £60m Corby facility, is responsible for packing wine into Laylo’s uniquely designed boxes, labelling, storing and distributing them. 

Laylo co-founder Laura Rosenberger, says: “It's an incredibly exciting time for Laylo, but with growth comes increased operational complexity.

“The partnership with Europa Warehouse will be instrumental in supporting our processing, packing, and storage capabilities. As a startup business, we need a properly coordinated 3PL process to offer customers an unrivalled order experience."  

Corby is laid out with 18-metre-high racking in a narrow aisle configuration, as well as an £11m high-tech automation system. Volumes of goods passing through the warehouse have increased by 350% since June 2020, from 8,000 units per day to 28,000 per day.

Europa Warehouse head of logistics sales Sally Watson, says: “Brands like Laylo can benefit from the advanced storage, pick rates and distribution efficiency of the Corby site. The biggest brands out there have had to start somewhere, and we can provide the perfect gateway.”
