Download
The mid-sized transport and logistics specialist strengthens its local presence in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region. By relocating its Dijon branch, Heppner aims not only to expand its transport activities in France and Europe, but also to make its CSR commitments even more tangible. The Group is also relying on a strategic geographical location, symbolizing the territorial network deployed by Heppner to offer its customers ever more efficient and innovative solutions to meet their needs.
With a surface area of 1,650 m², including 18 dockside doors, Heppner’s new Dijon branch handles 300 positions delivered every day in the Côte d’Or department (21), and also serves the Jura (39) and Saône-et-Loire (71) regions. The Group’s only branch in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region, Dijon is strategically located on the edge of the A31 freeway linking Luxembourg to the A6 towards Lyon. More than just a regional hub, this new location is intended to strengthen Heppner’s transport activities on a national scale, but also in relation to all European markets, notably through cross-docking.
Heppner’s new Dijon branch is also in line with the company’s CSR strategy. The buildings meet the expectations of the tertiary sector decree and current environmental standards, and feature numerous sustainable features in line with the Group’s initiatives: LED lighting, energy management with Deepki Ready, etc. Features that also echo Heppner’s employee experience approach, for the benefit of the branch’s 25 employees.
“Our new premises respond to all our concerns: delivering excellent, local service to our customers, enhancing the quality of working life for our employees, and playing an ever greater part in preserving environmental resources. We are all focused on the success of our common objectives, and are working to strengthen our position in the region, in the market and with our European partners ”, emphasizes Pierre Inizan, Heppner’s Regional Director for the Rhône-Alpes region
La nouvelle agence d’Heppner à Dijon dispose de 18 portes à quai.
