Kuehne+Nagel to operate Central Logistics Center for Schaeffler in Asia Pacific

This 3,000sqm assembly and packaging facility, strategically located in the Si Racha free zone district is situated close to the Schaeffler manufacturing plant in Chonburi. This Central Logistics Center will handle operational activities including kitting, goods receiving, and shipping. It is designed to optimise logistics processes and increase delivery capacity, ensuring consistently high delivery service levels for the customers of Schaeffler Vehicle Lifetime Solutions division across Asia Pacific.

Micah Shepard, President of Schaeffler Vehicle Lifetime Solutions Asia Pacific, states: “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, our goal is to improve the accessibility and efficiency of spare parts distribution by increasing our focus on innovation, progress, and customer orientation.” “Our long-term partnership with Schaeffler has grown over the years thanks to our shared commitment and collaborative spirit. Together, we have achieved remarkable progress and will continue to build on this solid foundation, embracing the opportunities ahead,” says David Roussiere, Managing Director of Kuehne+Nagel Thailand, Cambodia and Myanmar.

As part of its Roadmap 2026, Kuehne+Nagel identifies Asia as a key growth area, with Thailand playing an important role. The company stays connected to its customers by investing locally and building even stronger partnerships, ensuring they meet their evolving needs.
