JAC Motors SA opened a new parts warehouse in Roodepoort as the brand grows in South-Africa, and the group now boasts 70 dealerships since entering the country seven years ago.
The Chinese manufacturer offers a variety of double-cab bakkies, forward-cab workhorses, and MCV and HCV trucks. It company recently introduced its new range-topping T9 2.0L CTi double-cab locally, following its worldwide debut at the 2023 Shanghai International Auto Show.
Local brand expansion prompted a second enlargement of the company's parts warehouse in two years to meet rising demand from a growing customer base and expanded service area across Southern Africa.
The new parts warehouse is located at JAC Motors' Roodepoort head office and is double the size of the previous facility. It also features a unique shelving system that doubles storage space, allowing for higher stock levels.
"We are proud to invest in a new, centrally located state-of-the-art parts warehouse facility. It will enhance our service, benefitting dealers, panel beaters and customers, consistently ensuring high levels of customer satisfaction," says Karl-Heinz Göbel, CEO of JAC Motors South Africa.
In addition to its larger size, the new warehouse is engineered to streamline order processing and the dispatching of parts. Equipped with a high-tech ordering system, it enables rapid and efficient order fulfilment, with real-time tracking available to dealers to keep customers informed about their purchases.
"As a customer-centric brand, JAC Motors SA plans for future growth, particularly with an expanding product range. This growth trajectory will further accelerate our customer base, underscoring our commitment to customer satisfaction," he concludes.
