The group's logistics
GreenLog
The group's warehouse in Anjou: goods-in, storage, order picking, multi-carrier shipping and returns — for our brands, and for others.
The group's logistics
GreenLog, the warehouse that prepares the group’s parcels — and everyone else’s.
GreenLog is the Hairmony group’s logistics company. It grew out of an internal observation: after eleven years of preparing our own brands’ orders every day, logistics was no longer a cost centre, it was an expertise. We chose to turn it into a fully-fledged company rather than just another department.
The warehouse is located in Saint-Barthélemy-d’Anjou, near Angers: 1,200 m², around a thousand pallet locations, height-adjustable racking, and up-to-date regulatory checks. It handles goods-in, storage, order picking, multi-carrier shipping and returns.
What GreenLog operates
- Goods-in and put-away: unloading, item-by-item quantity checks, reconciliation with the purchase order.
- Storage on racking, in a monitored and insured warehouse.
- Order picking by hand, with cardboard chosen for its contents and systematic packing.
- Shipping through a multi-carrier network, to the door or to a pick-up point, depending on the destination and the service required.
- Returns: inspection, restocking decision, reintegration into inventory.
- Management: connection to the online shop or ERP system, stock synchronisation, automatic tracking-number updates.
Care for the parcel
Eleven years in cosmetics teach you what breaks and what leaks.
A poorly packed bottle doesn’t travel well. An oversized box causes more breakage than a knock ever would. That lesson came from our own brands, and it now benefits everything entrusted to us.
It also has a direct environmental benefit: less empty space shipped, less breakage, fewer returns, less repeat transport. Logistics restraint isn’t a marketing line, it’s the same practice that costs less and pollutes less.
For outside brands
A warehouse open to brands that sell online.
GreenLog is not reserved for the group’s own companies. The warehouse welcomes outside brands, primarily in cosmetics, beauty and fragile products — those for whom a damaged parcel costs far more than the price of the product.
Full details of the offer, pricing and services operated by the warehouse are presented on the company’s website.
GreenLog is the trading name of Val de Loire Logistique, a member of the GreenLog network.
Frequently asked questions
GreenLog is a logistics provider: the warehouse receives your goods, stores them, picks your orders, ships them through several carriers and handles your returns. This is what’s known as a 3PL provider.
In Saint-Barthélemy-d’Anjou, in the Angers area, in Pays de la Loire.
Yes. The warehouse was designed to be shared: the group’s brands are its first customers, and it is open to outside brands, particularly in cosmetics and beauty.
Because picking and shipping directly determine customer satisfaction and cost price. Turning it into a dedicated trade makes it possible to measure it, improve it, and offer it to others, instead of enduring it as an internal cost.
