Where loading happens around Paris

  • Roissy-Charles de Gaulle — air cargo hub; we take over shipments at the terminal after customs clearance.
  • Rungis — Europe's largest fresh food wholesale market; chilled goods loaded at night and early morning.
  • Garonor, Sénart and zones along the A1 and A5 — distribution centres for retail chains, e-commerce and cosmetics.

Cosmetics and luxury goods

Perfumes, cosmetics and fashion accessories are valuable and attractive to thieves. We carry them in a closed, sealed truck on a direct route without unnecessary stops and insured for full value.
