Roger Federer leaves his mark on Contern

It was therefore necessary to ship less to stores, but more directly to customers. Those consumers who, from home, reserved a pair of shoes for their future joggers, the ideal socks, the anti-perspiration T-shirt, etc. So many pieces certainly produced for the most part in Asia, arrived by boat in Antwerp but carefully stored here, in Contern. “On running chose us first for our central positioning. From here, an order quickly arrived in Germany, France or Belgium (which are the main markets). ”

From RFID chip to polish

But Markus Kettenhofen knows that the site has other advantages. The seriousness of the management of arrivals and departures or the modernity of the installations are part of this. Just like the know-how of the workforce not only to prepare the hundreds of boxes ready to travel through Europe, but also to repackage the material that could be returned. “We receive surpluses, but also items that may have been offered for demonstration or purchases that do not quite meet the requirements of such.” It is then up to the personnel to check the condition of each part, clean them if necessary and put them back into the circuit for a new life.

Small hands also used to accommodate the products according to the wishes of the moment. Here, a customer who wants to display the price of the sneakers on the boxes, such a promotion that requires the addition of a gift with the shipment. The work adapts to the demands of the day. But from reading the RFID chip to helping polish a sole, nothing should be left to chance.

It is indeed On Running that Roger Federer wore at Roland-Garros. Look at his feet at Wimbledon, if it turns out his sneakers will come from Luxembourg …

Lightweight with cushioning to match the volleys of Federer who gave him his first name. But no time for Markus Kettenhofen to admire the variations of the tennis player’s favorite shoe with twenty grand slam trophies. In the other three Kuene + Nagel depots, other orders are calling for it.

Starting with shipments of large robots or Tyvek coils produced in the neighboring Dupont de Nemours factory. “They, too, have given us an extraordinary year 2020. Their fabric was in demand everywhere … ”Not enough to scare the manager and the 700 employees of the group in Luxembourg.
