Renting and purchasing - The best match day starts with excellent logistics - Wednesday, 18.12.2024

Imagine: your favourite team wins thanks to two incredible goals scored by their star player. You’re ecstatic. Filled with excitement, you go online that same evening to order matching jerseys for yourself, your son and your wife. Naturally, you place your order quickly to be sure it will arrive in time for next weekend's game. Just a few days later, you’re holding the fan gear in your hands. 

What often goes unnoticed behind such swift delivery is a seamless logistics system and high-performance technology.

 

The fastest way to your own jersey

To ensure such a process runs quickly, smoothly and effortlessly, you need professionals like ITG GmbH Internationale Spedition und Logistik. 

Based in Munich, Germany, this globally active company has been its customers' go-to partner for e-commerce, logistics fulfilment and transport for over 40 years. In the fashion & lifestyle sector, ITG offers comprehensive services that cover the entire supply chain for manufacturers, suppliers, fashion brands, distributors, department store chains and retailers. In particular, in-house tailoring and textile preparation, plus dedicated textile transport, enable swift and customised flock printing of jerseys and their prompt delivery to customers.

 

Flexibility in the vehicle fleet 

In the logistics business, flexibility is especially important. When production output and customer demands increase rapidly, forklift trucks are often in constant use. As a result, the existing battery fleet becomes insufficient. More battery capacity is needed, at short notice. At the same time, the rapidly growing demands of modern intralogistics require continuous optimisation of processes and increased efficiency. One possible solution is to rent the batteries you need.

 

Combining makes sense: purchasing plus renting 

In the light of the above, the advantages of rented batteries are clear: rapid response times, no capital outlay, and maximum flexibility. ITG understands that well. For nearly 20 years, the company has relied on the expertise of HOPPECKE to equip its logistics operations with reliable HOPPECKE energy storage units and chargers. In the warehouse at its main site in Munich, ITG relies on a combination of purchased HOPPECKE trak | uplift batteries, rented HOPPECKE trak | rent batteries and purchased trak | charger HF premium chargers. "What makes the HOPPECKE rental service special is our close partnership with our customers. Thanks to our large pool inventory and return stocks, we can deliver quickly. Additionally, our qualified and well-trained service technicians are available across Germany to perform maintenance or repair work as needed.", says Lukas Kühler, Sales Manager Rental & Refurbishment at HOPPECKE.

In short, with HOPPECKE as a partner, ITG's seamless logistics not only cater to enthusiastic fans but also keep the entire fashion world on the move. We’re pleased to support ITG in this endeavour.

 

“Our service at HOPPECKE includes cleaning batteries, changing batteries and replacing faulty battery cells and charger modules. We also offer maximum flexibility during the rental period, allowing for fluctuating demand for rental equipment (batteries, chargers and changing racks) and adjustments to the length of the rental."

“What I value particularly is our collaboration with HOPPECKE, which is totally based around trust and always focused on solutions. To manage our fluctuating order volume in the fashion and lifestyle sector, we rely on HOPPECKE's flexible rental service in peak periods. This has allowed us to significantly enhance performance and safety in our battery use, to meet the needs of a smooth three-shift work process.”
