CEVA Logistics launches Saraiva's eCommerce business across South-East
Brazil

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - 3 October, 2018 - Saraiva, Brazil's largest online
retailer, has chosen CEVA Logistics to support the ongoing expansion of its
distribution network in South-East Brazil. From its multi-user warehouse at
Extrema in the Minas Gerais municipality, CEVA Logistics will be able to
introduce faster working and delivery practices to Saraiva and its customers
in the region.

CEVA will manage more than one million products which Saraiva currently
offers to the Brazilian market through its eCommerce service and more than
100 physical stores across the country. Books, films, computers,
accessories, multimedia software, stationery, periodicals and magazines,
educational toys and e-readers are just some of the items which will be
handled.

CEVA already operates two distribution centres for Saraiva covering more
than 24,000 square meters from where it will continue to provide order
picking services, warehousing, inventory management and shipping and employs
more than 500 staff. In 2017 more than 30 million products were shipped to
Saraiva's stores and more than 10 million individual pieces were sold
through the eCommerce platform.

The new facility at Extrema will specialize in telephony, computing and
accessories and gaming and will be part of the network which will allow
Saraiva's customers to choose a "Turbo Delivery" option where they can place
orders for any item up to 3pm and receive delivery the following day.

Douglas Piagentini, Business Development Director CEVA Logistics Brazil,
says: "Extrema in the state of Minas Gerais is very well located, which
enables easy access to logistic roads for the South, Southeast and
Centro-East regions. This allows much faster deliveries of customers' online
purchases from our warehouse to the final destination."

Alexandre Faria, Logistics Manager of Saraiva, says: "Through this new
distribution center, CEVA Logistics is enabling us to strengthen our unique
customer strategy of offering both eCommerce and physical store options. Not
only will it provide us with greater agility in domestic deliveries, we will
also be able to restock our physical stores faster".
