Meritor, Inc. has opened a new ASEAN Aftermarket Distribution and Customer Service Center in Jurong Town, Singapore. According to Meritor, the distribution center opening was attended by customers, suppliers, business partners and government officials, including David Adelman, U.S. ambassador to Singapore.

With the ability to supply Indochina, Indonesia, Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand, Meritor says the facility will provide commercial vehicle axle, brake, driveline and suspension parts under the Meritor, TruckTechnic, Euclid and Mascot brands to distributors in the region, along with thousands of end-user truck operators.

“Our global experience with serving our customers has enabled us to incorporate many advancements in this new distribution center solidifying our leadership position in the Aftermarket,” says Eike Torsten Merz, managing director, Aftermarket, Asia Pacific, Meritor. “Our speed to customers in Asia Pacific will improve dramatically, as well as our ample critical-parts inventory to meet all truck, tractor and trailer service parts demands.”

Meritor says the Singapore facility is another expansion of the company’s Aftermarket footprint. Other facilities have opened recently in India, China and Australia. Meritor says all three will all be managed by the Singapore headquarters.

Meritor operates aftermarket distribution centers in Australia, Canada, China, Germany, India, Mexico, South America, United Kingdom and United States.
