TROY, Mich. – Meritor Inc. recently completed an expansion of its aftermarket distribution center in Edmonton, Alberta, which the company says will improve service and delivery time to its western Canada OE dealer and warehouse distributor customers. The 35,000 square-foot center now stocks a full line of Meritor and Euclid drivetrain and undercarriage products.
The expansion improves product availability, which will reduce lead times as much as 70 percent, according to Doug Jamieson, site manager, Meritor.
“Our expanded center in Edmonton enables us to consolidate and expedite a customer’s order for Meritor and Euclid parts into one shipment for faster delivery,” Jamieson said.
Customers in British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan were previously served through the company’s Brampton, Ontario, distribution center.
The expanded Edmonton facility complements Meritor Logistics, the company’s new third-party, aftermarket-based multiple logistic services. This new service was recently launched to improve distribution activities, packaging capabilities and remanufacturing techniques within a given country or an entire continent.
