Our members are recruitingBILLET OF THE WEEK
by Yann De Feraudy, President of France Supply Chain
"All my best wishes of joy, success and health to you and all your loved ones!
2021 is behind us and, if you are reading these lines, it is because you are holding in your hands the first copy of the weekly letter of France Supply Chain.
It is a project that is close to my heart because it will allow us to maintain a recurrent link and to talk about Supply Chain as we understand it in France Supply Chain. We have never talked so much about Supply and Logistics since the beginning of the pandemic, which is good. Our jobs are more visible, but still badly known.
We speak about it either in a very "commercial" way, each one boasting about achievements with such or such partner, or in a very fragmented way, transport here, warehousing there, without presenting the globality and transversality of the function which make it a powerful lever of transformation.
I thank the team of permanent staff, Valérie Macrez at the head and Jean-Philippe Guillaume for having accepted to take up this new challenge for our association which represents this weekly speech. Happy reading!"
HIGHLIGHTS
Record year for logistics real estate
With strong growth in recent years, logistics real estate has broken all records in 2022. This is what specialist firms such as EOL have observed: "The sector is growing rapidly: it is an all-time record and the best year since the advent of this market at the end of the 1990s. In France, more than 3,700,000 m² of buildings were the subject of a transaction, which represents an increase in take-up of 35% compared to 2020 and 12% compared to 2019 (reference year). According to CBRE, one of the main drivers of this market is e-commerce. Indeed, omnichannelity is forcing companies to review their organisations and redefine their logistic schemes. This is one of the reasons why investment in logistics has reached nearly €6.4 billion worldwide for the year 2021 and now represents 25% of the volume invested in commercial property. This good health of the sector also reflects a renewed confidence in logistics, which has demonstrated its importance throughout the health crisis. It should benefit a whole ecosystem of suppliers: forklift truck manufacturers, IT publishers, integrators of automated solutions, etc. In other words, 2022 is off to a good start, because it's well known that when (logistics) construction goes well... everything goes!
