Swiss logistics company Kuehne + Nagel is extending its global partnership with Embraer to include the set-up of a logistics hub for the Middle East and Africa region, reported Dow Jones Newswires.
The hub will be located in Kuehne + Nagel's logistics centre in Dubai Logistics City (DLC), offering spare parts logistics for the Embraer commercial aviation fleet.
Located near the new Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), in the Dubai Logistics City (DLC), the facility supplies spare parts for the expanding Embraer commercial aviation fleet in the Middle East, as well as support for customers in Africa
"By opening this new support base to customers, we will bring spare parts inventories close to them, improving our level of service," said Mathieu Duquesnoy, Embraer vice-president, commercial aviation, the Middle East and Africa.
"The Dubai distribution centre will allow us to improve parts and components availability, as well as the delivery process to customers in this growing region."
“We are delighted that Embraer decided to extend the global relationship by entrusting us with their spare parts logistics in the DLC facility," said Werner Kleymann, regional manager of Kuehne + Nagel in the Middle East, Central Asia and Turkey.
