General Mills, the US-based food giant, has centralised its logistics operations for dry food products in France by consolidating warehousing, order preparation, and distribution at a single site in Toury. The facility, which has been operational since January 2026, spans more than 18,000 sq m and serves as a national distribution hub for the grocery network across France.
Contract logistics provider ID Logistics is taking over the full logistics and distribution operations, handling up to 17,000 pallets in storage and nearly 8 million parcels annually. The move consolidates part of General Mills France’s flows to enhance performance, service quality and supply chain visibility across the country.
To support operations at the facility, which features 18 loading docks, a team of 30 employees has been recruited. The site utilizes automated barcode scanning on forklifts, collision-prevention technologies, and loading traceability terminals to boost productivity and reinforce safety. Additionally, the facility incorporates sustainable features including rooftop photovoltaic panels, intelligent LED and zenithal lighting, and a rainwater recovery system.
Frédéric Grenier, managing director of ID Logistics France, commented: “By supporting General Mills, ID Logistics confirms its ability to structure integrated logistics solutions combining operational excellence, technological innovation and environmental responsibility, in the service of a high-performing FMCG supply chain”.
