Wagener & Simon WASI GmbH & Co. KG based in Wuppertal, Germany, says that Fastener Fair Stuttgart helped prove that WASI’s new logistics centre is able to handle the growing diversity in its customers’ requirements.
The construction of the new logistics centre started back in February 2008, with it becoming operational in the middle of 2009. The high-bay warehouse has space for 156,000 compartments and 12,200 pallets. In total the built-up area covers 7,300 square metres.
"The new logistics centre is an important step for us in meeting the growing logistic needs of our customers and facing the ongoing globalisation process,” commented Dirk Kiele-Dunsche, managing director of WASI. He added, “The growing diversity in our customer's requirements was again confirmed in the many conversations that took place during Fastener Fair Stuttgart. Short response times, handling of large trading volumes and individual packaging are important features which we can offer our customers with this future-oriented logistics center.”
