The increasing demand in the online shopping sector is not only creating new tasks for retailers, but also for logistics service providers. Processes need to be optimised and warehouse space expanded to cope with the increased order volume. This change in consumer behaviour, known as the e-commerce boom, is the topic of the current podcast episode of ‘Logistics People Talk’.

Kerry Delaney, Managing Director of Rhenus Warehousing Solutions Lutterworth in the UK, and Szczepan Gowin, International Sector Leader for E-commerce within Rhenus Warehousing Solutions, talk about the e-commerce boom and give an insight into the past developments and future plans of warehouse logistics. They talk about the way consumer behaviour has changed as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and what modifications this has brought to warehouse logistics. Listeners will also learn how sustainability is taken into account in the building of new warehouses and the creation of new warehousing and delivery processes.
