Today, the new modern warehouse facility, located in the industrial zone of Kazichene, has all the necessary requirements for storing conventional goods, as well as a specialized warehouse for hazardous (ADR) materials. The logistics center is equipped with floor and rack storage facilities , a sprinkler system, and a multi-component security system. The security of the goods is ensured by video surveillance.
