The company's Commercial Director, Pyotr Nechiporenko, stated: "This logistics and production complex project is a key milestone in the company's development, aimed at establishing a parts production base for the automotive industry cluster in St. Petersburg and across Russia.

The commissioning of this logistics and production complex is expected to serve as a significant support for the company's continued capacity expansion in the Russian automotive aftermarket. The integrated space combining warehousing, sorting, and assembly functions also allows the company to flexibly adjust production and inventory strategies in response to market demand changes, shortening the cycle from production to delivery of core components, thereby enhancing its overall competitiveness in the automotive aftermarket sector.
