Brokk open new distribution centre
State-of-the-art 4,000 sq ft facility in Ontario to improve customer support in Canada
BROKK, global manufacturers of remote-controlled demolition robots, have opened a new Canadian distribution centre in Hamilton, Ontario. The 4,000 sq ft facility will house Brokk’s full line of demolition machines with attachments, Aquajet Hydrodemolition robots and parts inventory for both brands.
Importantly, the new centre will transform stock control and parts/components availability for the company’s Canada operations, as demolition and construction contractors will no longer have to wait for equipment to go through customs from the US.
The new location will be run by Jim Bennett, who will oversee product management, customer services, and spare parts support for the company’s regional sales managers in Canada.
Lars Lindgren, president of Brokk, Inc., commented: ‘Adding a distribution centre gets us closer to our Canadian customers and generally streamlines the ordering and shipping process.
‘We’re all excited to see what Jim [Bennett] will make of the facility and how it will help our customers in the Toronto area and beyond. He has a wealth of warehouse management experience and will closely monitor demand for Brokk and Aquajet products to ensure optimal stock.’
