E-Commerce Logistics: DHL Fulfillment Network Expands in the Lyon Region

To keep pace with growing demand and support its clients in scaling their e-commerce operations, DHL Supply Chain is expanding the DHL Fulfillment Network by adding capacity at its Saint-Quentin-Fallavier site (in the Isère region, near Lyon). This fulfillment center manages European orders for numerous e-retailers and is extending its specialized teams responsible for storage, order preparation, and shipping across France, Europe, and into the world.

With this expansion at the heart of one of the most strategic logistics hubs in France and Europe, e-retailers—whether pure players or omnichannel businesses—benefit from even greater flexibility and operational agility. This is made possible not only by the site’s ideal location along the Lille–Paris–Lyon–Marseille corridor, but also by its position supporting the movement of goods between northern and southern Europe and the broader Mediterranean region.

Global e-commerce has experienced steady growth for over two decades (source: Statista), characterized by both major international players and a steady rise of smaller niche and local businesses—many of which are scaling rapidly at regional and international levels.

However, the e-commerce market also brings complexity and uncertainty, driven by customer volatility, challenges in forecasting order volumes, and ever-evolving buying behavior.

In this context, e-retailers need to run their operations efficiently, flexibly, and competitively—while maintaining the ability to grow quickly and adapt their strategy easily. That’s exactly what DHL Fulfillment Network’s e-commerce logistics offering enables.
