Lesjöfors Group expands European market with new distribution center in Netherlands
The Lesjöfors Group, one of the largest spring corporations in the world, is increasing its global logistics network with the opening of a purpose-built distribution and sales centre for its standard stock range, enabling faster deliveries across Europe.
Express delivery service
Lesjöfors Stock Spring Europe will be based in the Netherlands, in Haaksbergen, and the new fulfilment centre will service Lesjöfors’ extensive standard stock range across continental Europe, expanding the group’s express delivery service already available in the Nordics.
Ola Tengroth, CEO of the Lesjöfors Group says: “Expanding our sales and distribution network into Europe is very exciting as we are now able to respond to customer demands for same day deliveries across our standard range of springs, gas springs, pressings, wire forms and adjacent products.
Strengthening our market position in our rapidly expanding standard range, we’re looking to this new logistics hub to secure our ambitions to be the number one supplier of quality standard items in the industry.”
This latest investment is part of a strategic programme that has seen the Lesjöfors Group grow from a 250m euro turnover to 400m euros in the last three years.
Investment in growth
Henrik Furhoff, Head of Business Area Standard says: “Our objective is to significantly accelerate the growth of our standard items across Europe and this investment is a crucial enabler for that. Our goal is to deliver the widest range of standard stock items, the best customer service and the fastest delivery.
This new development continues the Lesjöfors Group’s ongoing expansion, enhancing our customers’ accessibility and convenience in our standard range.”
Partnership delivers performance
Partnership is key to success and the Lesjöfors Group has optimised efficiencies across its company base by working alongside the new sales hub’s neighbouring colleagues at De Spiraal, also owned by the Lesjöfors Group, to deliver to the group’s sustainability agenda and enhance each sites support functions.
Ali Akhondzadeh, General Manager for Lesjöfors Stocks Springs Europe concludes: “When we are at full capacity, we will have the widest range of stock springs and gas springs in Europe. All will be available for immediate purchase - with same day delivery across continental Europe - strengthening our position as the number one partner in sustainable spring and pressing solutions.”
As they build to being fully operational, Lesjöfors are extensively recruiting locally and looking for talented individuals who want to join their highly motivated team. Get in touch at hr@lesjoforsab.com.
