CTT opened a new operational center in Rio de Mouro, in the municipality of Sintra, which represented an investment of approximately two million euros and the creation of 350 direct and indirect jobs, the company announced this Monday, 9th.
The new unit supports the preparation of up to 300 distribution routes and processes up to 6,000 objects per hour, which is equivalent to around 126,000 items per day. The infrastructure is intended to serve approximately 900,000 residents in the area, according to CTT.
João Bento, the director of CTT, highlights that “this investment allows us to respond with greater efficiency and quality to the needs of our customers, clearly demonstrating our ongoing commitment to the modernization and innovation of operations”.
This is the second opening of an automated operational center in Portugal in the last year — after the launch of the Algoz center in July — while in Spain centers were opened in Málaga, Murcia and Valencia.
Currently, the network in the Iberian Peninsula includes 75 operational centers, 31 of which are fully automated and 17 with coverage for Portugal and Spain.
