Panalpina offers value-added services at Huntsville hub
Panalpina has opened a new facility next to its Huntsville hub, to increase the company’s capacity for providing value-added logistics services.
The new Huntsville Logistics Centre (HLC) provides complete kitting and parts assembly for hi-tech manufacturers, and the fully equipped 40,000 sq.ft facility also offers temperature-controlled storage areas for customers in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
The increasing of its in-house logistics capabilities is part of Panalpina’s recently specified strategy where the core service offering, air- and ocean freight, is to be complemented by Supply Chain Services (SCS) and Value Added Services (VAS) in logistics.
Rick Jordon, senior vice president of Supply Chain Solutions, USA, said: "Our goal is to provide customers with fully integrated and customisable supply chain solutions. Our offering in Huntsville is a prime example of this. Customers can use our reliable own controlled airfreight network, benefit from a multitude of advanced warehouse services, customisable IT enhancements and direct access to our advanced road feeder service."
