Bridgestone extends Fiege's logistics contract to Switzerland
ERJ staff report (DS)
Brussels -- Long-time supplier of logistics services to Bridgestone in Germany, Fiege Group has now assumed the cross-border distribution for Bridgestone from its facility in Lahr into Switzerland.
Transport is operated mainly with vehicles from Fiege Logistik (Schweiz) AG's own fleet. Large consignments are delivered directly from the Lahr logistics centre to customers in Switzerland, and mini-shipments are distributed via the LCL network of Fiege Logistik (Schweiz) AG.
The entire product range of Swiss customers, including summer and winter tyres for passenger vehicles as well as tyres for commercial vehicles, trucks and off-road, are by now stocked in Lahr. By re-organising its logistics the tyre manufacturer was able to consolidate its stock, formerly kept at two warehouses, while simultaneously increasing the availability of articles for Swiss customers.
