TO enhance Ford's after-sales service for its customers, Ford Philippines recently inaugurated its integrated parts distribution facility in Calamba, Laguna. The new facility features state-of-the-art building and racking infrastructure, as well as improved inventory management that leverages technology and data, resulting in more efficient parts distribution operations.
Built from the ground up, the facility spans over 13,000 square meters and consolidates the previous depots located in Calamba, Laguna, and Carmona, Cavite. The massive space is equipped with eight inbound and outbound docks, allowing for faster and more seamless receiving and dispatch of vehicle parts. Fast-moving items are positioned in racks closer to the operations area, while commonly used parts are strategically placed on eye-level shelves for easy retrieval.

The expanded storage capacity can now accommodate up to 100,000 vehicle parts in one location, simplifying and expediting the order delivery process.
