After five weeks of confinement, Loxam is stepping up the means put in place to support the resumption of activity. The LOXAM network operates today with 400 branches operating in contactless drive mode, to support professionals across France in their gradual resumption of activity.
A network of 300 agencies provides global coverage of the territory for site deliveries. For this, the health and safety procedures put in place from the first days of containment are rigorously continued, in parallel with the recommendations of the OPPBTP guide.
80% of the network open
Today, more than 80% of the Loxam branch network are in business, with 400 branches in drive and / or delivery mode, in complete safety.
The opening of these agencies makes it possible to network the national territory and to ensure proximity with many sites. Thus, the distances traveled for deliveries are limited and - de facto - the risks of spreading the Covid-19 virus from one place to another.
The agencies operate by applying the most demanding health protocols tested for 5 weeks already as part of a Business Continuity Plan (PCA) in accordance with the Group's occupational health and safety principles certified ISO 45001. Among the measures applied : strict compliance with a safety distance of 2 meters between people, the establishment of 'quarantine' zones with departure and return airlocks for the removal / return of materials (including on construction sites), cleaning and disinfection of machines between each rental, priority given to electronic exchanges…
"Our Group is there, motivated and organized to support - in the best safety and health conditions - professionals who resume their activity by offering them quality service and proven processes for over a month already (start of the implementation of a continuity plan in our network). Thanks to the mobilization and determination of our teams, all of our 500 branches will soon be reopened throughout the country, allowing us to respond at the request of professionals, as well as individuals. ", says Olivier Groulez, CEO of Loxam.
