Jamie Brooks, regional sales director, Avtrade said: “I am delighted to announce Avtrade’s collaboration with DB Schenker for our logistics requirements in the Middle East and Asia. We have been extremely happy with their service and professional approach to managing Avtrade's B737, B757, B767, A320 and A330 rotable inventory pool. With Avtrade's components and DB Schenker’s AOG logistics capabilities we are well positioned to service our clients in the Gulf and Asia regions.”
David Harrison, commercial director, Schenker Limited, said “Having an established global operation for the aeroparts industry enabled us to offer a bespoke solution to Avtrade in the form of a ‘virtual warehouse’ all controlled from the UK for their worldwide distribution. Our Aerohub concept enables us to act as an extension of Avtrade’s business.”
DB Schenker is one of the world’s leading logistics service providers, with a strong pedigree in performance, service and safety.
