Equipment specialist, SAF-Holland, is opening a new Cincinnati Aftermarket Distribution Centre (DC) next year.
The facility is expected to open Q2 2023 and will provide more space and improve efficiency. It is located within the Fairfield Commerce Park and was designed for an improved flow of material. It provides more square footage for material storage and dedicated areas for value added services such as kitting.
The larger facility allows SAF-Holland to stock a broad range and ensure appropriate safety stock levels on fast moving parts. As a result, this will improve availability and therefore reduce lead times for distribution customers and end-users.
Aftermarket (Americas) Vice President and General Manager, Matt Wolfe, said the new DC will allow SAF-Holland to further meet its customers’ needs.
“Our investment in the Cincinnati Distribution Centre enables us to better meet customer demand because we can increase our product availability and reduce wait times,” he said.
“With better space utilisation we can serve our customers better and provide for growth with future customers.”
The facility features numerous dock doors to maximise shipping and receiving efficiency and has direct access to I-275 and I-75 in the heart of Cincinnati’s largest industrial area.
