According to Tigers, it has doubled its Cologne e-commerce fulfilment complex to support the brand and will launch a same-day delivery service using bicycles, initially in Cologne.

“We are supporting HOLYMESH with both B2B and B2C solutions, including shipping from their production centres in Italy and China, as well as developing bespoke packaging solutions and fulfilling quality controls both at shipping and on arrival at our facility,” said Andreas Niklasch, managing director of Germany and Switzerland at Tigers Germany. “Each B2C package is a bespoke undertaking, from cardboard packing and label taping, to adding the respective documents, such as autographs from YouTube influencers, and other promotional material.”

Tigers now handles sorting and checking into stock for HOLYMESH, storage, electronic data interchange order transfers, processing returns, quality check Web Map Service data maintenance, repacking and relabelling.
