The group’s warehouses offer a capacity of 24,000 square meters (301,389 square feet) and are supported by a robust warehousing system to safeguard fast and reliable delivery. The company stocks products from well-known international aftermarket brands and offers replacement parts for engines, transmission, suspension, axles and steering as well as for cooling and braking systems, among others.
