Shimano reorganizes logistics

When trading in goods, it goes without saying that product quality is crucial to whether the product proves itself on the market and with the customer. But since the goods have to reach the customer first, logistics are absolutely crucial for market success. Shimano is now relying on the Swiss logistics experts from Kuehne + Nagel to further improve the supply of parts in Europe.

The Japanese component giant now relies on a European distribution center in Tessenderlo in Belgium, which is managed by Kuehne+Nagel. The modern warehouse solution is intended to support Shimano in coping with increasing volumes.

The 20,000 square meter distribution center will go into operation in the course of 2023 and create 50 new jobs. Automated picking technology will be used. It will also handle transport management for batteries - which are classified as hazardous goods - for e-bikes.bike.shimano.com
