The Challenge

Following the opening of its warehouse in Girona in 2018, Vision Direct was looking for a partner to manage all of its shipments in France. It had two key requirements: A supplier would need to allow Vision Direct to continue working with La Poste Group - Colissimo, and it would need to maintain the 48h lead time that Vision Direct is famous for.

Vision Direct´s ideal partner needed to be able to deliver a consistent level of service and build a reliable relationship based on trust.

 

The Solution

Vision Direct was introduced to Asendia through its common partner, La Poste Group - Colissimo. As the Spanish representative of La Poste - Colissimo, Asendia was able to integrate orders to La Poste Group´s network on the same day that they were made. The timely daily collection offered by Asendia allowed Vision Direct to continue its promise of a 48h delivery service.

Vision Direct has been able to send its products to the French market via e-PAQ Select powered by Colissimo, which offers home deliveries.
