Zalando selects PostNord TPL to run the Nordic fulfilment centre in Brunna

One of the largest assignments in PostNord TPL’s history marks a major step forward in the partnership.

PostNord TPL, the leading third-party logistics provider in the Nordics, has taken over operations at the fulfilment centre in Brunna, just outside Stockholm handling orders for Zalando — a 50,000 m² logistics hub serving millions of customers across Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden.

This strategic assignment, one of the largest in PostNord TPL’s history, showcases the company’s capability to manage large-scale, high-volume e-commerce logistics across the Nordics. The Brunna site handles around 6.5 million customer orders and 19 million items annually, employing over 450 permanent staff and up to 1,000 seasonal staff during peak periods.

 

“This is a milestone for PostNord TPL and a strong signal to the market,” says Andrew Kristensen, CEO of PostNord TPL. “Seamlessly onboarding an operation of this size shows that we can take responsibility for the most demanding and time-critical logistics assignments in the Nordics. With our scalable capacity, deep local expertise and close customer partnerships, we are ready to grow together with Zalando and shape the future of e-commerce logistics.”

 

The Brunna facility was inaugurated in 2019. PostNord TPL already manages Zalando’s Nordic returns operations and this takeover marks the next step in the long-term partnership.

 

“Brunna is a cornerstone of Zalando’s logistics network in the Nordics,” says Neil Bennett, VP Logistics Operations at Zalando. “By strengthening our collaboration with PostNord TPL, we are leveraging their strong local capabilities to further improve speed, reliability and convenience for our customers.”

 

The Chairman of the Municipal Council in Upplands-Bro attended the press event held in Brunna on 15 October.

 

“We welcome the new partnership between PostNord TPL and Zalando. The warehouse in Brunna is a major and important employer in the municipality, and we look forward to a constructive collaboration,” says Fredrik Kjos, Chairman of the Municipal Council (M), Upplands-Bro Municipality.

 

By integrating Brunna into its operations, PostNord TPL connects Zalando’s order fulfillment directly with PostNord’s extensive last-mile network, creating a seamless end-to-end flow from warehouse floor to customers’ doorsteps and pick-up points across the region.
