Schaeffler Vehicle Lifetime Solutions Asia Pacific has appointed Kuehne+Nagel to manage its Central Logistics Center in Thailand. This 3,000 sqm assembly and packaging facility, strategically located in the Si Racha free zone district, is close to Schaeffler’s manufacturing plant in Chonburi.
The Central Logistics Center is designed to streamline operations, including kitting, goods receiving, and shipping. By optimizing logistics processes and enhancing delivery capacity, the facility will ensure consistently high service levels for Schaeffler’s customers across the Asia Pacific region.
Micah Shepard, President of Schaeffler Vehicle Lifetime Solutions Asia Pacific, emphasized the significance of this initiative: “This Central Logistics Center will serve as a key supply hub for the Asia Pacific region. With Kuehne+Nagel as our experienced and reliable logistics partner, we aim to enhance the accessibility and efficiency of spare parts distribution while focusing on innovation, progress, and customer-centric solutions.”
David Roussiere, Managing Director of Kuehne+Nagel Thailand, Cambodia, and Myanmar, echoed this sentiment:
“Our long-standing partnership with Schaeffler has flourished through shared commitment and collaboration. Together, we have made significant strides, and we remain dedicated to building on this strong foundation while embracing future opportunities.”
As part of its Roadmap 2026 strategy, Kuehne+Nagel has identified Asia as a key growth region, with Thailand playing a pivotal role. The company continues to strengthen its regional presence through local investments and strategic partnerships. A recent example is the newly established distribution center in the Suvarnabhumi Airport free trade zone in Bangkok, further reinforcing Kuehne+Nagel’s commitment to meet evolving customer needs.
