European Distribution >>> Pallet networks

Pallet networks, falling between courier services and consignments, have only recently been introduced in Europe, but STTI can already offer its customers this leading-edge service. Unlike courier services, it does not use consignment density (poids taxable) as a factor in its pricing. Pallet networks may be used only for products that can be palleted; the maximum mass for a standard package is one tonne. They are useful for specific destinations for up to around three pallets, and must be supplemented using the consignment service.

 

People and know-how:

A team of five experienced staff, organized by destination, are available to you. Each person manages a shipment from start to finish, up to the invoicing stage, so that all the information is centralized.


The pallet networks operate like a courier service and guarantee delivery times for dispatches and fast information turnaround.


Resources:

By sharing resources within our trade association Log’in 3, we can collect loads from the Aube, the Marne, the Yonne and the Paris area, and from other areas if the quantity is sufficient.


STTI uses its own fleet for daily runs to the main network hubs.


Each order is tracked using our information system, which communicates with our partners via EDI.


Our customs agency and our tax representatives facilitate documentation management for consignments of alcohol or bonded shipments.

 

Shipments:

On behalf of our customers, we carry out import and export operations in Italy, Germany, the Benelux countries, Great Britain, Switzerland and the Iberian peninsula.

 

Larger consignments are managed depending on destination by our own fleet or by the partners we select as our subcontractors.


Customer references: Our customers include Manoir Industrie, Vachette, Sédis and Catequip.
