LyondellBasell collaborated on the distribution hub with Danish logistics services giant A.P Moller-Maersk, which created a tailor-made warehousing solution that significantly reduces the lead time for deliveries, Maersk said.
The group said its new hub in Hungary ensures optimised distribution and swift delivery, with Maersk able to offer more reliable and resilient cargo flows through its control of logistics assets, including vessels, terminals, aircraft, and truck fleets.
