Focus on dock and racking density, mezzanine and cold storage availability, WMS and API integrations, automation for pick/pack, return processing, and SLA-backed carrier connections. Evaluate lead times to major postal hubs and cross-border clearance performance.

Closer access to autoroutes, rail terminals and Luxembourg Airport reduces fuel and line-haul expense, shortens transit windows, and enables more reliable same- or next-day regional deliveries — lowering landed cost and inventory days in transit.

Compare pick-and-pack rates, storage cubic/m2 pricing, average order cycle time, on-time dispatch percentage, inventory accuracy, onboarding lead time, and surcharge exposure (fuel, peak season, cross-border fees).

Onboarding generally includes site and process audit, WMS integration and EDI/API testing, pilot inventory receipt and QC, defined SOPs for returns and exceptions, staff training, and a phased cutover; typical timelines range from 6 to 12 weeks depending on complexity.
