SSI SCHAEFER Noell realises automobile logistics centre
Volkswagen de Mèxico in Puebla has over 15,000 employees working in 3-shift operation to produce approx. 1500 cars each day, including the Jetta, New Beetle, Golf Cabrio and Beetle/Sedan.
The production expansion of over 60% from 1991 to 2001 due to new models and versions required new, efficient logistics concepts. Of eight providers, SSI SCHAEFER Noell was awarded the contract as a general contractor.
The sophisticated total concept won over the decision-makers as did the tried and trusted technology for an optimum price/performance ratio. The innovative logistics centre combines many benefits for process optimisation. Transparency and cost-savings based on reducing area and personnel, removing duplicated functions and reducing the numbers of industrial trucks and HGVs.
