What Logista does

Logista is a publicly traded European logistics operator (BME: LOG; IBEX 35 component) headquartered in Leganés, Madrid, that distributes fast-moving consumer goods, regulated products (tobacco, pharmaceuticals, lotteries), convenience items, books, and electronic top-up services to approximately 200,000 points of sale across Spain, France, Italy, Portugal, Poland, and Benelux. The company operates what it describes as the largest food-safety-certified transport network in Spain, runs 700 central and regional platforms and service points, and employs nearly 8,000 people directly (excluding franchisees, Logista Parcel delegates, drivers, and other partners). Its wholly-owned subsidiary NACEX provides express parcel and document delivery across Spain, Portugal, Andorra, and Benelux via more than 300 franchise offices, 4,000+ NACEX.shop service points, 35 hubs, and a fleet exceeding 2,600 vehicles, with additional last-mile capacity through Logista Parcel delegates.

The technology foundation is an integrated physical logistics and distribution platform: omnichannel order capture from points of sale, product purchase and supply, transport, and after-sale service, with certified regulatory capabilities for temperature-controlled pharmaceutical logistics and regulated goods. The platform is distinguished less by software IP than by certified operational scale: ISO 9001 quality certification, the largest food-safety-certified transport network in Spain, and deep multi-country regulatory expertise in tobacco, pharma, and lottery distribution. NACEX maintains consumer-facing iOS and Android apps for shipper services, but no proprietary AI, machine-learning models, or developer APIs are disclosed.

Logista generates revenue primarily through transaction and distribution fees charged to manufacturers and brands for moving goods through its network, supplemented by franchise and service fees from NACEX. For FY2025 (year ending 30 September 2025), the company reported €1,809 million in economic sales, €378 million in adjusted EBIT, and €281 million in net profit, with a market capitalization of €3,836 million and €277 million in dividends allocated to FY2025. The customer base spans large manufacturers — Imperial Brands PLC holds four proprietary board seats, signalling a strategically important tobacco-distribution relationship — and a long tail of approximately 200,000 small retailers across multiple verticals.

Broad incumbents

• DSV: DSV is a major European-headquartered transport and logistics group operating in road, air & sea, and contract logistics. Comparable as a broad incumbent serving manufacturers across Europe, with similar cross-border distribution capabilities but without Logista's proximity-retail specialisation.
• Kuehne+Nagel: Kuehne+Nagel is a leading global freight forwarder and contract logistics provider with deep European operations. Comparable to Logista as a broad incumbent in regulated-goods forwarding and contract distribution, though less specialised in proximity retail.
• Geodis: Geodis is a French-headquartered global logistics provider with strength in contract logistics, freight forwarding, and distribution in Europe. It overlaps with Logista's transport solutions and European distribution platform, especially in France and Southern Europe.
• DHL Group: DHL Group operates the world's largest logistics network across express, freight, supply chain, and e-commerce. It overlaps with Logista's transport, parcel (NACEX competes with DHL Express), and contract distribution capabilities at much greater scale and geographic breadth.

Direct peers

• Cencora: Cencora (formerly AmerisourceBergen) is a global pharmaceutical distribution and solutions provider with significant European operations. It overlaps directly with Logista's regulated pharma distribution and specialty drug logistics capabilities.
• Phoenix Group: Phoenix Group is one of Europe's largest pharmaceutical wholesale and distribution groups, operating across 29 countries. It is directly comparable to Logista's pharmaceutical distribution vertical and proximity-channel reach into pharmacies and healthcare points of sale.
• ID Logistics: ID Logistics is a French contract logistics specialist focused on retail and consumer goods distribution across Europe and emerging markets. Its proximity-channel and retail distribution model closely mirrors Logista's service to manufacturers selling into convenience and retail points of sale.
• GLS (General Logistics Systems): GLS is a European parcel and logistics network owned by Royal Mail/IDS, operating across most EU countries. Directly comparable to NACEX's express parcel and B2B/B2C delivery model, particularly in Iberia, Benelux, and adjacent markets.
• McKesson: McKesson is one of the largest pharmaceutical wholesalers and healthcare distributors globally. It is directly comparable to Logista's pharmaceutical distribution vertical in its regulated, time-sensitive pharma supply chain to retail points of care.

Regional players

• SEUR (DPDgroup): SEUR is DPDgroup's Iberian parcel delivery network and one of NACEX's primary domestic competitors in Spain and Portugal. Comparable as a regional express parcel operator serving SMBs and consumers in the same geography where NACEX is strongest.
