Bleckmann, a prominent player in supply chain management, has announced the extension of its Bscale solution to the UK and the Netherlands.
Bscale, a modular warehousing and fulfilment service, is designed to provide brands with enterprise-level logistics support without the typical barriers, such as substantial upfront costs. This expansion signifies a crucial phase in Bscale’s growth, offering brands enhanced access to innovative logistics services.
Bscale’s service model grants brands expedited access to comprehensive logistics support, enabling them to commence shipping operations within weeks. The solution employs a ‘pay-as-you-grow’ pricing model, ensuring brands are only charged for the services utilised, thereby minimising initial financial burdens.
Initially piloted at Bleckmann’s Belgian distribution centre, Bscale has expanded from a single client to over 20. The inclusion of the UK and Netherlands markets now facilitates quicker access to logistics support across Europe. Quotes can be requested online, and all service information is accessible via a centralised digital portal.
Maxim Sion, Business Development Manager at Bleckmann, explains, “Bscale is unique in that it’s designed from the point of view of fashion founders.” The service aims to alleviate the logistics burden on start-up and scale-up brands by providing access to Bleckmann’s expertise and infrastructure, similar to that used by brands like Karl Lagerfeld, COS, and Gymshark.
The integration of advanced automation and over 160 years of fashion logistics expertise underpins Bscale’s efficiency. Brands such as Sepi Agari and Wolk Antwerp report significant reductions in fulfilment times, achieved without compromising customer experience. Bscale clients also benefit from Bleckmann’s array of value-added services, ensuring high standards of presentation as their market reach expands.
The demand for Bscale’s logistics offering continues to rise, with the first clients in the UK and the Netherlands poised to go live. This expansion supports brands in exploring new markets without incurring traditional costs and risks. Brands operating from Belgium or the Netherlands can now allocate inventory to Bleckmann’s new UK hub in Swindon, facilitated by the ‘pay-as-you-grow’ model.
Bscale has been recognised as an industry-leading solution, winning the ‘3PL Solution of the Year’ at the 2025 SupplyTech Breakthrough Awards. Maxim Sion notes, “Bscale was designed as a modular solution, allowing brands to take the next steps on their growth journey in line with their expansion.” Bleckmann remains committed to supporting brands across more geographies, aligning with their growth ambitions.
