Move will support growing demand from key retail customers in Central Europe
Reusable packaging and pooling solutions specialist Tosca has opened a new service centre in Salzkotten to meet the rising demand for its plastic half pallet. The 3,300m2 facility offers an annual capacity of 3.1mn trips for half pallets, significantly enhancing Tosca’s operational footprint in the region.
The company said the site will play a key role in supporting its reusable plastic half pallet operations, helping to onboard and scale major FMCG opportunities effectively.
Tosca also announced the completion of a substantial expansion of its existing service centre in Frechen. The facility’s footprint has doubled, enabling approximately 2mn additional half pallet flows per year.
“This expansion supports anticipated business growth of over 30 per cent in 2025 and ensures Tosca can continue to deliver consistent, high-quality service to customers across Germany,” the company said.
Tosca continues to focus on strengthening supply chain efficiency and reliability for key players in the FMCG and retail sectors. The investments are tailored to meet the rising operational demands of Tosca’s half pallet business, delivered through a joint programme with several prominent retail chains in Central Europe.
“These strategic investments allow us to keep pace with growing demand while maintaining the high standards of service, reliability, and sustainability expected by our customers,” said Marco Gonzalez, managing director for Central Europe. “With enhanced infrastructure in Salzkotten and Frechen, we are well positioned to support our continued growth across Germany.”
