Description
PPL CZ, one of the major delivery service providers in Czechia, has opened a new depot in Mošnov near the city of Ostrava. The new depot will offer up to 130 new jobs.
This is now the 29th logistics hub to be opened in the PPL CZ network which covers the whole of the Czech Republic. Due to the operation of a modern sorting line, the company can handle up to 15,000 parcels per day. With its strategic location, the new depot will expand the forwarding infrastructure in the Moravian-Silesian region and facilitate international coverage thanks to seamless connection of the PPL logistics network to Slovakia and Poland.
PPL CZ, which employs over 1,000 people, specialises in parcel transport not only in the Czech Republic, but also throughout Europe. The company has been on the Czech market since 1995.
