Toyo Tires specializes primarily in developing the latest technologies, as well as the production and sale of high-class, high-performance tires. Toyo’s wide range of products includes summer and winter tires of various sizes for passenger cars, SUVs, and trucks. Since the beginning of 2006, the logistics for Toyo Tires’ assortment have been handled by the Fiege Group. During this time, several million tires have left the Mega Center in Dortmund, one of Fiege’s largest facilities in Germany, and reached customers in Germany and Austria.
The gradual but permanent integration of both companies’ IT systems has streamlined the distribution system for both parties. The cooperation with the Fiege branch in Vienna, which began in September of last year, has significantly contributed to a clear improvement in delivery times to end customers in Austria. This location is treated as a second transshipment point for tires.
– Since our long-term goal became greater involvement in Austria and reaching neighboring European countries, enriching our offer for customers proved to be essential. Given our previous positive experiences with Fiege in Germany, we are convinced that we have chosen the right partner, who possesses specialized and extensive knowledge of this sector, as this will allow us to develop this cooperation in the future – says Alexander Baumbach, Tire Logistics Manager for Toyo in Germany and Austria, explaining the reasons behind the decision to extend the contract.
