In building its new platform, NACEX has taken into account the highest quality standards in the design and selection of materials, also following rigorous criteria for energetic efficiency and environmental sustainability.
In his speech, Coslada’s Mayor, Ángel Viveros, said that “today is an important day as an important company, which was already located in the city, opens new and modern premises, which, in terms of economic development and employment is very good news for the city where the number of unemployed in these three years have decreased from over 6,000 to 3,800”.
The mayor reminded that “Coslada is a source of attraction for logistics companies as it is a privileged geostrategic location with a Dry Port, an International Transport Centre and a Logistics Industrial Estate only 3Km away from the Madrid Barajas airport, managing 50% of Spain’s air cargo. We are also located at an excellent communications crossroads and very close to Madrid’s fairground, IFEMA”.
