Swisslog is in charge of the intralogistics as well as all the construction work. “We are very pleased that our long-time customer has placed his trust in us again,” states Heinz Ennen, Managing Director of Swisslog GmbH in Dortmund and Director of Sales for Central Europe. “The new facility in Wustermark is already the third major contract that we have had the honor of building for dm.” Over the past 15 years, the Swiss intralogistics specialist has built a logistics center in Waghäusel, Baden-Württemberg und in Weilerswist in North Rhine-Westphalia for the drugstore chain.
