GXO Logistics, Inc. announced that it has signed a long-term partnership with Grupa Zywiec, one of the leading brewers in Poland which is part of the HEINEKEN Group. Since 2019, GXO has been optimizing logistics for the brewer at its warehouse in Elblag, just outside Gdansk in northern Poland. GXO provides logistics services at Grupa Zywiec's brewery in Elblag and at a separate 12,000-square-meter logistics center.

Approximately 80 GXO team members manage a variety of supply chain solutions, including production support, warehousing, shuttle service, and delivery execution. The center is certified ISO 9001, 14001 and 2200, the highest standards of management, food safety, and environmental care. The implementation of automated pallet scanning significantly improved productivity and safety, enabling employees to focus on more value-added tasks.

GXO shares Grupa Zywiec' commitment to customers and the communities in which they operate. By implementing LED lighting and motion detectors, GXO reduced energy use in the Elblag facility by 70%. GXO has also installed a battery charging station and developed paperless storage processes.

In 2024, the Elblag site celebrated a five-year, accident-free safety record on site, demonstrating the company's commitment to safety through the consistent implementation of GXO's "Road to Zero" safety program andrupa Zywiec's SHE DAY program promoting safety, mental health, and employee well-being. GXO in Central Europe, where it has been operating for more than 20 years, include Poland, Czech Republic, Romania and Germany, serving customers in the e-commerce, omnichannel, fashion, FMCG and DIY industries. GXO specializes in tech-enabled fulfillment solutions and services that include warehousing, order preparation, e-fulfillment, co-packing, returns management, rework and repair management and temperature-controlled logistics in dedicated- and shared-user facilities with over 30 sites and a total of 1,000,000 square meters of operating space in all four countries.
