Specialist aerospace logistics provider B&H Worldwide, has expanded its warehouse and offices in Melbourne, Australia to cater for growing demand from its Oceania customers.
Colin Kattner, head of operations, Oceania, said the specialist teams at the facility will now be able store, handle and process an ever-expanding number of customers' aerospace inventories including large-scale items such as aero engines and tyres.
"As our primary forward stocking location for Australia and the South Pacific, we are now able to cater to all their expansion requirements," Kattner said. "They will have global visibility of their inventory through our unique, cloud-based track and trace platform FirstTrac and with our increased capacity we can provide a full range of specialist aerospace logistics services."
The new facility is a 10 minute drive from Melbourne Tullamarine airport, making it ideally positioned for handling the growing number of AOG (aircraft-on-ground) shipments the company is now carrying.
Additional warehouse staff have been employed to provide round-the-clock coverage within the facility and the expanded team will also offer specialist dangerous goods services.
