Mercadona has announced plans to invest around €35 million in the construction of a new warehouse in Huévar del Aljarafe, near Seville, where it already operates a logistics facility.
The new warehouse will cover around 36,700 square metres, and be constructed on a plot totalling 88,000 square metres. Mercadona anticipates that the new warehouse will be fully operational in the year 2021.
The purpose of the new warehouse will be to implement a new system for storing and preparing fresh produce, which will help drive greater efficiency into the Spanish market leader's operations.
