English translation:reorganize management of storage spaces following transfer of business from agents
Explanation:
emplacement=storage spaces or warehouse spaces

affaires mandataires= assigned business

Explanation:
"affaire mandataire" I am not sure about this, but it appears to mean a transaction involving an outside agent or representative.
