Press release
Paris, 21st October 2024
Proximy and France Routage, two Riccobono Group companies, are joining forces to offer an innovative addressed distribution solution for magazine publishers and direct marketing and business mail contractors.
Faced with expected increases in the price of stamps in 2025, Proximy, the leading press distributor in the Île-de-France and Oise regions, and France Routage, the national leader in magazine binding and routing, are announcing a strategic partnership.
Together, they are presenting a new addressed distribution solution, initially aimed at magazine publishers, then extended to marketing and management mail contractors - an economic alternative that is vital to the survival of the paper industry.
Starting this year, this offer will be deployed first on the existing network of 160,000 addresses already distributed by Proximy in the Ile de France and Oise areas, before being gradually extended to the whole of France.
Distribution will be based on Proximy's logistics system, comprising 1,400 carriers, 8 platforms and a fleet of around 100 Paper Trucks, which will be supplemented by a network of relay points equipped with dedicated lockers.
At the heart of this new offering is an innovative information system for managing and optimising distribution, based on the most advanced artificial intelligence technologies to guarantee optimum efficiency.
The combination of France Routage's and Proximy's expertise is designed to offer competitive rates while guaranteeing a high-quality service.
This partnership is proof of the Riccobono Group's ability to create synergies, ensuring that all its customers benefit from the best possible service.
