Multi-client campus model gives you enormous flexibility
GEODIS is a pioneer of the campus approach to shared warehousing. Our 20+ multi-client campuses replace traditional storage limitations with dynamic and versatile operations that quickly respond to your changing needs.
- Shared resources across multiple buildings reduce costs while maintaining best-in-class service levels
- Flexible labor allocation shifts trained workers between facilities based on your real-time demand
- Instant surge capacity through immediate access to additional space without infrastructure investment
- On-site support teams, including IT, HR, and engineering, for rapid issue resolution
- Equipment sharing that maximizes the use of material handling resources across your operations
- Best practice sharing through weekly campus management meetings to drive continuous improvement
Each campus operates multiple warehouses that are positioned close together. This proximity optimizes resources and reduces costs in ways that are impossible in standalone facilities.

Frequently asked questions about warehousing services
GEODIS uses an in-house Warehouse Management System that integrates with multiple technologies including automated sortation, robotics, voice picking, and RF scanning. Our WMS connects through our Warehouse Control System to equipment like Locus robots, goods-to-person systems, and print-and-apply machines. You access real-time data through our Visibility Portal, which provides 24x7 visibility into inventory levels, order status, and customizable KPI dashboards. The system integrates seamlessly with your ERP and order management platforms through EDI, API, and web services, ensuring complete supply chain visibility.
Seasonal flexibility comes as standard through our multi-client campus model. Operating 20+ strategic campuses with multiple buildings in close proximity, we shift labor and resources between facilities based on demand. On-demand warehouse capacity deploys quickly for peaks without long-term commitments. Our campus approach lets you access trained workers, equipment, and space very quickly. Many clients use our flex space for seasonal and promotional spikes, then scale back without issue.
GEODIS takes a data-driven approach to warehouse automation, analyzing your specific order profiles, SKU characteristics, and volume patterns before recommending technology. We're technology-agnostic, selecting best-in-class solutions rather than forcing proprietary systems. Our implementations range from basic RF scanning to fully automated goods-to-person systems. We've deployed Locus Robotics, multi-shuttle ASRS, voice picking, and automated sortation based on proven ROI. Each automation decision considers labor availability, flexibility requirements, and your growth projections.
Our proven GeoLaunch program implements 30 large warehouse operations annually. Dedicated implementation teams manage everything from facility setup to systems integration and staff training. Standard implementations can take as little as 60-90 days from contract to go-live, with expedited options available. We maintain spare capacity across our network for immediate needs. Our experience launching operations for startups and Fortune 500 companies ensures smooth transitions without disrupting your business.
GEODIS operates specialized warehouse facilities for healthcare, food and beverage, automotive, retail, high-tech, and industrial sectors. Healthcare products require FDA-registered facilities with lot tracking and temperature control. Food operations need AIB certification and USDA registration. Automotive warehousing demands sequencing capabilities and JIT delivery. High-tech products require ESD controls and enhanced security. Each specialization includes relevant certifications, trained staff, and proven processes developed through decades of industry experience.
We maximize warehouse space through systematic analysis and continuous optimization. Our engineering team evaluates your product dimensions, velocity, and handling requirements to design optimal storage configurations. We use vertical space through high-bay racking and automated storage systems. Slotting optimization places fast-moving items in accessible locations. Regular reviews identify opportunities to adjust storage or reallocate space based on changing SKU profiles.
Security protects your inventory through multiple layers. All facilities maintain 24-hour surveillance, controlled access, and alarm systems. C-TPAT validation ensures supply chain security protocols. Physical segregation in multi-client facilities uses walls, fencing, and cages. Our Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA) certified sites meet the highest security standards.
Contract warehousing with GEODIS transforms fixed costs into variable expenses while accessing enterprise-grade capabilities. Our multi-client model shares labor, equipment, and overhead across customers, reducing individual costs. You avoid capital investment in facilities, technology, and material handling equipment. Shared resources mean you pay only for what you use. Our scale enables better rates on supplies, utilities, and services. Professional management and engineered processes improve efficiency while gaining flexibility and scalability through our warehouse solutions.
