Logistics

Oriflame’s overall supply strategy is to move the sourcing of products and printing of catalogues closer to the current and future Group Distribution Centre facilities and major markets. The aim is to improve transportation routes and thereby reduce greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption, a strategy that has been successful.

 The vast majority of the Oriflame’s shipments are conducted by sea and truck freight. The packaging and loading routines for ship containers and trucks are continuously being reviewed to optimise space usage, thereby reducing energy consumption.
The average number of pallets shipped in each truck and container have increased by more than 50 percent since 2010. When selecting road carriers the aim is to utilise Euro 4, 5 and 6 standard trucks wherever possible, thus reducing particle emissions. Oriflame also works hard to limit air shipments to the greatest extent possible.
