9,000 square meters of central warehouse
Hellmann Worldwide Logistics opens new warehouse in Kerpen
The global logistics service provider Hellmann Worldwide Logistics has opened a new warehouse for contract logistics on Wankelstraße in Cologne/Kerpen. The approx. 9,000 m² central warehouse is operated exclusively for the globally active Walterscheid Powertrain Group, for which Hellmann has been working since 2013.
All 22 service centers in Europe and all end customers of the Walterscheid Powertrain Group worldwide will be supplied with spare parts from the new central warehouse in the "Log Plaza Wankelstraße" logistics park. In addition to central warehouse logistics, the contract for Hellmann also includes other services, such as processing production orders and pre-packing incoming goods.
The Walterscheid Powertrain Group is a global supplier of products, systems and service solutions in the field of power management for the world's leading manufacturers of off-highway products, such as agricultural machinery and industrial equipment. With the extension of the contract, Hellmann, as a full-service logistics provider, now realizes the logistics for the Walterscheid Powertrain Group centrally.
"We are delighted to have found a global player in Hellmann Worldwide Logistics that covers the entire range of logistics services we require. The dynamic team has already impressed us in the past with its extremely solution-oriented approach to our individual process requirements. With today's opening of our central warehouse in the Cologne metropolitan region, we are therefore looking to the future with confidence," says Wolfgang Lemser, CEO Walterscheid Powertrain Group.
"The Walterscheid Powertrain Group is an important customer for Hellmann in the area of contract logistics and spare parts logistics, and we are looking forward to growing with them. The new central warehouse in Cologne/Kerpen meets the latest standards at all levels, and we will continue to drive our growth in the region from here," says Robert Bommers, COO Contract Logistics Hellmann Wordlwide Logistics.
