In a deal that puts Kuehne + Nagel in the driver’s seat, the logistics major has been awarded a contract to manage the BMW South Africa Parts and Accessories Distribution Centre in Midrand. The facility is responsible for the distribution of parts to South Africa and five neighbouring countries. K+N has since the end of 2008 managed part of the BMWoperated facility in Midrand. The latest development sees BMW outsourcing the entire operation, with a three-year contract covering the management of the entire national parts distribution centre.
