Ceva Renews Supply Chain Agreement with Carrier-Toshiba

Ceva Logistics has renewed three separate one-year agreements with Carrier-Toshiba, a producer of air conditioning, ventilation and refrigeration systems. The former’s solutions will support the latter’s supply chain, from inbound activities to spare parts management.

The first agreement will see Ceva manage the latter’s finished products: the activities will include the receiving of the products from the suppliers, their transportation across Italy and both domestic and overseas delivery. Over 800,000 parcels will be handled every year with the involvement of two warehouses: Villasanta (Monza-Brianza) and Pognano (BG), an eco-sustainable warehouse.

Carrier-Toshiba has also entrusted Ceva with its inbound logistics. The contract involves the reception of materials from Italian and international suppliers, the line-feeding, the sequencing kitting for a number of production lines and the management of returns to and from suppliers. Seven areas of the Villasanta warehouse will be devoted to these activities taking-up around 7.000 sq meters of floor space.

The third agreement will also see Ceva manage the movement of spare parts from suppliers and handle the transport of deliveries in Italy. Around 3000 sq meters of the Agrate Brianza warehouse will be dedicated to these activities and with the help of an automatic packaging machine, 450,000 spares a year will be handled.
