Tigers has relocated to a new facility in Shanghai which includes two warehouses to meet growing demand and to overcome previous space restraints.

According to the supply chain specialist, the new facility is located close to Shanghai Yangshan Port and has a dual-warehouse model, allowing the company to offer scalable solutions to B2B and B2C customers alike across domestic and international markets.

“Our improved warehouse layout at the new facility has afforded us an increase of 34% in pallet spaces, equivalent to 4000 pallets, and a floor space increase of 50%,” said Laura Crow [centre in photo], managing director of China at Tigers. “Our previous facility was operating at maximum capacity for over a year, leaving us with no space to grow and limiting our operational efficiency and ability to meet an ever-growing customer demand for complex e-commerce projects. Our new warehouse complex will allow us to continue to review our product and ensure it remains fit for purpose as our e-commerce fulfilment operations develop in the region.”

The new 3,779-square-metre-facility is equipped with 10-metre-high racks and a mezzanine shelving system, dedicated to complex pick-and-pack projects. Tigers offers sea and air freight consolidation and export, global omnichannel fulfilment, China domestic distribution and a variety of value-added services.

“The new facility strengthens our e-commerce operations for international brands entering China and the APAC region,” said Crow. “Working in tandem with our bonded operations in Shanghai, we will continue to support foreign brands to get a foothold in the China market by providing import Customs brokerage.”

The new Shanghai facility works across a range of sectors, including domestic distribution of spare parts for the automotive and lighting industries, apparel exports to retailers in Australia and the European Union, and Tmall domestic fulfilment, according to Tigers.
