Manitou inaugurates logistics center in India
Manitou Group, a global leader in handling, aerial work platform and earthmoving sectors, has inaugurated a new spare parts logistics center in Greater Noida. This new logistics center is designed to support the Group's growth in this high-potential market. The spare parts stocked in this warehouse will be dedicated to the maintenance of machines manufactured at the Group's Indian plant, also located in Greater Noida. They will be shipped mainly to Asia, but also to South America and Africa, where Indian-made compact track loaders, telehandlers and backhoe loaders are distributed. The new logistics center has quadrupled in size to over 8,300 sqm, enabling the shipment of upto 90,000 order lines a year at maximum capacity. To ensure this daily quality of service, 40 employees will work in shifts at the new facility. Launched in January 2023, the project was completed in less than a year, informs Pierre-Yves Malgogne, Vice President of the Spare Parts Business Unit. Manitou Group has 8 logistics centers around the world to make spare parts available to all its customers.
