The company, which operates on the consumer products market, has rented an area of 30,400 sqm, to serve as a distribution area. The company will pay approximately 1.5 million Euros/year for the area it rented.
The first hangar which will be occupied by Unilever, with a surface of 11,000 square meters, has already been completed, Ivan Lokere, CEO Alinso Group said in a conference yesterday.
