" New warehouse complex with state-of-the-art technology and 80,000 m² of space In the framework of the 30th anniversary of the Mercedes-Benz Germersheim Global Logistics Center, a new state-of-the-art warehouse complex was inaugurated. Through its 80,000m2, this global parts logistics center supplies partners in more than 150 countries with parts and accessories for commercial vehicles and passenger cars under the Mercedes-Benz, smart and FUSO brands. The important role of the Global Logistics Center for vehicle mobility, especially for areas relevant to the system, is also demonstrated during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The Global Logistics Center opened in 1990, it was one of the largest and most modern distribution centers for vehicle parts in the automotive industry. Automated material handling technologies, such as driverless transport systems and storage and retrieval devices, were already widely used at that time, and still are today: since then, the central warehouse has been expanded and modernized several times. . The commissioning of the new warehouse complex, with its state-of-the-art materials handling and storage technology, marks another milestone in the site's ongoing development.
