The collaboration with Arena Personal is part of Meds' work to optimise the supply chain ahead of the company's next growth phase. According to the online pharmacy, the cost effect of the new operating agreement is expected to be neutral compared to their current structure.
We look forward to establishing a strategic partnership with Arena Personal, with the goal of taking Meds' logistics to the next level. Their strong local presence, good references and the fact that they are entrepreneur-owned and led make them a particularly good partner for Meds, comments Björn Thorngren, CEO and co-founder of Meds.
Arena Personal also views the new deal in the Mälardalen region positively.
Arena Personal looks forward to becoming Meds' new operating partner. As we are today one of the market-leading companies in logistics in the Mälardalen region, we see great opportunities and synergies with this collaboration for both parties, says Thobias Ahlqvist, CEO of Arena Personal.
