Opening its third distribution center in Dormagen, Germany strengthens Boeing’s regional service footprint and customer support capacity. The 48,440ft² distribution center will store more than 9,000 unique parts for Boeing aircraft, including large items such as landing gear components.

“The expansion of our global network through this new warehouse exemplifies our dedication to being where our customers need us most,” says William Ampofo, senior vice president, Parts & Distribution and Supply Chain, Boeing Global Services.
