Magnum Trailer & Equipment announced it has added an additional 7,300 sq. ft. to its warehouse facility in Abbotsford, British Columbia. That expansion, the company says, has enabled the launch of a new Quick Ship Program that will increase inventory levels and reduce lead times on shipping.
“We have changed our manufacturing model to enable larger stocking of high moving products that will reduce delivery lead time for customers and make life easier for our dealers and distributors,” says David McLucas, vice president, truck accessories, Magnum Trailer & Equipment.
The new program will allow dealers to minimize carrying large amounts of these products and practice just-in-time inventory management, Magnum says.
The Quick Ship Program is designed for next-day shipping and reduced lead times on a wide selection of Magnum’s most popular moose and tube bumpers, chain hangers and cab guards, the company says. While the overall warehouse footprint has increased by 20 percent the inventory storage capacity has doubled.
