THE COMPANY has secured the warehouse, in the Rotterdam region, on a 10-year lease. The facility, recently completed by a local property developer, spans 26,000 sq m and includes both warehouse and office space.

This will be Cainiao’s second warehouse facility in the Netherlands. It is also part of a broader acceleration of the company’s warehouse expansion across Europe. In April, Cainiao launched four new overseas warehouses in Daventry in the UK, Paris in France, Madrid in Spain, and Rokitno in Poland, reflecting continued investment in regional logistics capacity.

The new Dutch fulfillment centre will also feature more than 100 of Cainiao’s self-developed climbing robots. These robots are designed to automate storage and retrieval tasks within the warehouse, helping improve productivity and operational consistency.
