What C-LOG Solutions does

C-LOG Solutions is a French third-party logistics (3PL) and transport provider founded in 2002, headquartered in Saint-Malo, and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Beaumanoir Group fashion conglomerate. The company specializes in omnichannel supply chain services for fashion, luxury, and retail brands — covering warehousing, order preparation, B2B store replenishment, B2C e-commerce fulfillment, customs clearance, freight forwarding, marketing logistics, and reverse logistics. C-LOG operates 10 logistics sites totaling approximately 160,000 m² across France, Belgium, and China, supported by 350 employees, and ships roughly 80 million pieces per year to 7,000+ points of sale in 80+ countries.

The company's technology stack combines the KÖRBER inconso Warehouse Management System (deployed across all sites since 2018) with a proprietary suite of transport and client tools: TRANSWARE (a fashion-tailored TMS), COSMOS (a web-based control tower / client portal with chatbot-integrated after-sales), COLIBRI (transport removals management), and C-LERITY (a 2022-launched bespoke TMS). It is investing in in-house tailor-made robotics to mechanize warehouse operations, including sorting systems rated at 12,000 pieces per hour across 300+ simultaneous distribution points, AGV/AMR robots for e-commerce, and mini-load stacker-crane storage. The company holds OEA-Full customs certification (2017), ISO 9001 (2013, renewed 2019), ISO 14001 (2019), EcoVadis Silver (2024), and the first European triple HQE/Affilog 3-star/THPE warehouse certification at Saint-Malo.

C-LOG generates revenue through a hybrid pricing model combining fixed fees (allocated warehouse area, equipment, administration, stock management) with variable per-unit rates (per part, per order, per parcel) under multi-year enterprise contracts. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting fashion and luxury brands via formal tender processes, supported by Key Account Management, an integrated marketing/content presence, and parent-group synergies through Beaumanoir's brand portfolio. Named customers include SMCP (Sandro/Maje/Claudie Pierlot), Damart, VeePee, Sarenza, Eden Park, Morgan, Cache Cache, Caroll, Bonobo Planet, Kickers, and Faith Connexion.

Revenue model

1. Third-Party Logistics (3PL) Services: C-LOG acts as a 3PL provider offering warehousing, order preparation, and fulfillment services to fashion and retail brands. Revenue is generated through fixed storage allocations plus variable per-unit work rates (per order, per parcel, per shipment).
2. Freight Forwarding / Commissionnaire de Transport: Since 2013, C-LOG holds freight forwarder status, allowing it to organize transport for third parties. As a commissionnaire de transport, it acts as a single point of contact for brands, negotiating rates with carriers and earning margins through volume purchasing. The company claims customers save 5-10% on transport purchases through C-LOG's freight forwarder services.
3. Customs Brokerage Services: As a customs broker and OEA-Full certified provider, C-LOG handles import/export customs declarations, bonded warehouse operations, and regulatory compliance for international shipments, generating fees for customs operations management.
4. Marketing Logistics (Global Store Solution): Dedicated POS (Point of Sale) and marketing logistics services including storage and shipments of POS materials, co-packing, kitting, printing, and express transport for promotional campaigns. Revenue is generated through per-project and per-unit service fees.

Regional players

• STEF: French-listed temperature-controlled and contract logistics specialist focused on food cold chain with adjacent retail logistics capabilities — primarily a regional French logistics competitor rather than direct fashion 3PL overlap.

Broad incumbents

• Geodis: French global 3PL owned by SNCF, offering contract logistics, freight forwarding, and distribution — larger and broader than C-LOG but a frequent competitor for the same fashion/retail accounts.
• CEVA Logistics: Global 3PL (CMA CGM subsidiary) with contract logistics, freight, and fashion-sector clients; competes with C-LOG on international flows and omnichannel fulfillment for apparel brands.
• DHL Supply Chain: Global contract logistics arm of Deutsche Post DHL; one of the largest 3PLs globally with significant apparel and luxury brand accounts, competing with C-LOG for large omnichannel fulfillment mandates.
• XPO Logistics: US-listed global contract logistics provider with apparel and retail vertical exposure; competes for cross-border fashion flows and large European 3PL tenders.
• GXO Logistics: US-listed pure-play contract logistics giant; notably the prior operator of the Sarenza warehouse acquired by C-LOG in 2023, making it a direct counterparty and competitor for European e-commerce fulfillment contracts.
• Kuehne+Nagel: Global freight forwarder and contract logistics provider with established fashion and lifestyle vertical presence; one of the largest competitors for fashion-brand 3PL RFPs globally.

Direct peers

• ID Logistics: French-listed contract logistics specialist with a significant fashion and retail vertical; competes head-to-head with C-LOG for French and European apparel 3PL contracts.
• Arvato (Bertelsmann): German-headquartered supply chain management division providing fashion and lifestyle 3PL services including omnichannel fulfillment, returns, and value-added services — same vertical and service mix as C-LOG.
• Bleckmann: Belgian-headquartered 3PL specialist focused on fashion and lifestyle brands, offering e-commerce fulfillment, retail logistics, and returns management — closely comparable to C-LOG's vertical-specialist model.
