TradeInn accelerates its logistics to reach €1.5 billion in revenue with major expansion in 2026GIRONA, Spain, Oct. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Online sports equipment retailer TradeInn has announced a major transformation of its operational centre in Celrà. With this initiative, the company is significantly increasing its logistics capacity following almost a decade of technological innovations applied to order fulfilment. This milestone is key to addressing the strategic challenge of reaching €1.5 billion in revenue in the coming years. Founded in Girona, TradeInn has established itself as one of the leading international e-commerce giants. The company currently operates through multiple specialist stores focused on different sports disciplines, such as Trekkinn, Bikeinn and Runnerinn, selling in more than 190 countries, with over 80% of its revenue generated outside the Spanish market. The expansion of its logistics headquarters will enable the company to support this rapid pace of international sales, ensuring the efficient delivery of a dynamic catalogue that already exceeds 3 million products. The logistics evolution underpinning this business model has been developed in fou major stages: 2017, first milestone. Introduction of the first automatic packaging machine and a carrier-based sorting system (sorter), increasing processing capacity from 300 to 1,000 packages per hour. 2019, second milestone. Addition of a second automated packaging line, doubling the centre's throughput to 2,000 packages per hour. 2021, third milestone. Implementation of a pocket sorter system to process single-item and multi-item orders simultaneously. This tripled goods handling capacity from 2,000 to 6,000 units per hour and required the facility to be expanded from 12,000 m² to 24,000 m². 2026, fourth milestone. TradeInn is undertaking a comprehensive expansion. The logistics centre is increasing its floor space and storage capacity to 50,000 m² and installing 195 racks, each 60 metres long and 12 metres high, capable of holding up to €170 million worth of stock available for immediate shipment. In terms of goods processing, the centre is adding 20 induction stations capable of handling 16,000 units per hour, two new packaging machines (bringing the total to four), and a multi-format case packer, reaching an operational dispatch capacity of 6,000 orders per hour. Finally, in terms of sorting and distribution, the company is expanding the pocket sorter for high-turnover products and adding a new outbound sorter with the capacity to sort 7,500 packages per hour. Thanks to this logistics engineering deployment, TradeInn is ensuring a constant flow of outbound shipments and strengthening its technical competitiveness in order to maintain a strong position within global e-commerce.
