Capena, Italy

Nissan Italy

Yale works together with Nissan Italy in central Italy

The materials handling requirement

The Nissan Italy distribution HQ in Capena is the main distribution centre of spare parts for the automotive industry at a national level. The warehouse’s spare parts come from either the two European production plants in Spain and the UK, or from Japan via the Amsterdam and Barcelona warehouses. Active since 1988, the spare parts centre covers 10,000 square metres, of which 7,500 are operational, and handles roughly 6,000 lines per day.

The solution

The collaboration between Nissan Italy and Yale dates back to 2002 when the dealer Antonelli Carrelli Elevatori Srl, based in Rome, won the contract. In 2011 Nissan Italy decided to renovate the entire fleet with a full-service agreement, and so began the search for the best partner capable of responding to this particular need.

In spite of some stiff competition, Antonelli once again proved to be the right choice: “I suggested to Nissan Italy some innovative formulas to renovate the fleet. The company proved very forward-thinking and decided to adopt them.”

Everyone involved in the competitive bid was asked to take over the entire fleet and replace it with other machinery, including some new machinery, while maintaining 17 recently purchased machines. Antonelli was one of just two suppliers shortlisted. The Rome dealer successfully proposed a buy-back value of the trucks tailored specifically to suit Nissan Italy’s needs.

Antonelli bought the entire package and then provided 7x MO and AC and 3x ERP 16VT newly produced trucks to replace the older machines, keeping a total of 43 trucks in use. “This is the Nissan story,” concludes Cristiano, “a story of August nights spent thinking of a winning strategy.”

Thanks to the flexibility of the rental and sales proposals, including used products, Yale provides solutions tailored to suit every company, with a primary emphasis on the client’s needs.

Today Antonelli Carrelli Elevatori, Yale’s exclusive distributor for the Rome area, provides service and maintenance twice a week at the Nissan Italy headquarters for the rented fleet of trucks, including the high and medium level storing machinery and electric and frontal platform pallet trucks.
