The building includes two halls dedicated to receiving and storing goods, as well as preparing and shipping orders. The multi-temperature site makes it possible to process the entire assortment, from ambient to frozen (-25oC) including fresh (2oC) and fruits and vegetables (8oC). A 500 m2 office block completes the whole. Located along the A9 motorway which connects Béziers to Nîmes, the Castries site can deliver to the heart of Montpellier in 15 minutes and to all the municipalities of the Metropolis in less than 1 hour.
