Docdata and bol.com extend cooperation agreement for five years
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Docdata fulfilment B.V. in Waalwijk, a subsidiary of DOCDATA N.V., and
bol.com, a subsidiary of AHOLD, are extending their cooperation agreement for a
period of five years. The cooperation agreement runs retroactively from 1
January 2015 to 1 January 2020, and entails the delivery of a complete package
of fulfilment services by Docdata to bol.com.
Bol.com has been a partner of Docdata since its launch in August 1999. Bol.com
has now become the leading webshop in the Netherlands and Belgium, with more
than five million customers. The range of bol.com has been significantly
expanded in recent years and includes approximately 9 million articles in a
large number of categories, including books, music, film & games, baby & child,
health & beauty, jewellery & bags, sport & leisure time, living & cooking,
garden & DIY and animal related products. Docdata and bol.com will continue to
jointly invest in further growth in the years ahead. An important aspect is the
development of the sales model of bol.com, in which other parties sell via
bol.com. The range will also continue to expand. Moreover, bol.com has developed
a new service for its sales partners: Logistics via bol.com. This enables
partners to outsource their entire fulfilment for the orders that they receive
via bol.com. Docdata provides the fulfilment service for this and thereby
guarantees that the deliveries are distributed in accordance with the service
offered by bol.com. This extended cooperation is based on a cost-price-plus
strategy, in which both partners will make the necessary investments.
Michiel Alting von Geusau, CEO of DOCDATA N.V.: "We are extremely pleased and
proud that we can once again secure our long-term and successful cooperation
with our very first e-commerce customer for an extended period and can jointly
achieve our ambitious plans. In 1999, we were pioneers that took the first steps
in the e-commerce market. And now we have grown into an organisation for which
no question is too difficult. The variety of the articles and the peak periods
that increase in size every year make great demands of the capacities of a
fulfilment partner. We are constantly working on the development of scalable
smart solutions in order to continue building the future and continuously
improve our service levels."
Daniel Ropers, director of bol.com: "Docdata has made an important contribution
to the growth of bol.com and has always been a reliable and flexible partner.
For us, it has ensured, year after year, that we could always continue to grow
in our ambition to offer our customers the best shop. We also trust the
expertise of Docdata for the delivery of new services for our sales partners."
