El Corte Inglés

will create a new independent subsidiary dedicated to logistics to compete with Amazon

and with the aim of offering its infrastructure to third parties and tripling its business volume to billing 1,200 million euros, as reported to Europa Press in sources of the group chaired Marta Alvarez.

Specifically,

the intention of the company is to take advantage of the logistics infrastructure that it already has

, which is the one that serves its shopping centers and supermarkets.

According to reports this Tuesday 'El País', it is a division in which around 5,000 people work, which has 1.2 million square meters of surface in 50 central and regional warehouses, in addition to the warehouses of its points of sale in Spain and Portugal, among which a thousand trailers travel daily, as well as other means of transport that deliver to stores and homes.

These logistics services are valued at around 400 million (this is what El Corte Inglés would spend if it had to hire them outside).

In this way,

the company will take advantage of and strengthen its current logistics and transport infrastructure,

even with agreements with other specialists, and will offer it to third parties, to become its logistics operator from start to finish, from the production plants to, if necessary necessary, the customer's address.
