STIHL opened a new central warehouse in Voelklingen, Germany on November 14, 2022. “The logistics site was built by Dietz AG as the investor and is operated by Hellmann Worldwide Logistics,” says a release from Hellmann.
With the new building, the STIHL Group is not only increasing its capacities but also improving its logistical efficiency and speed, the release added. “Battery products and all STIHL tools manufactured at the Tirol production site are stored at the new logistics and distribution location from where they are delivered to all STIHL sales companies and STIHL dealers worldwide — mainly in Germany, France and the Benelux countries. In addition, products ordered directly from STIHL’s own online store are supplied from Voelklingen. While the first deliveries have already been handled from Voelklingen since August of this year, the warehouse will be fully operational from January 2023.”
Nikolas Stihl, Chairman, STIHL Advisory Board and Supervisory Board, says: “With the central warehouse in Voelklingen, we are not only eliminating existing and foreseeable capacity bottlenecks but are also optimally positioning ourselves with a view to targeted growth, especially in the future field of batteries. After all, you can only remain a market leader in our industry if speed and cost efficiency in logistics are also internationally competitive in the long term.”
