We have already talked about Volkswagen and its plan on growing its market place in America. Volkswagen had some tough time earlier, and it still has to suffer from the scandal. The biggest question the company and we've had was if the company will be able to keep the customers trust? Well, we must admit that we've had some huge doubts about that. Now, that the economy in Russia slowed down, and of course the company will look for other strong options, but starting with U. S., is it a good idea?
No matter how the company will succeed, and what's the plan on returning the clients, one thing is known for sure a 143,000 square-foot distribution center in Rocklin,California., is fully operational to distribute parts to Volkswagen and Audi dealerships in the Pacific Northwest and Northern California. Do you wanna know how much inventory this $6.8 million Pacific Northwest Parts Distribution Center holds? Well it has 40,000 automotive service part numbers and $13 million in inventory, I'd say that is pretty much enough considering we don't know if Americans are ready to buy Volkswagen products.
Jan Bures the executive vice president group aftersales and services at VW Group Of America says that this new facility, plays a huge role in the VW commitment to provide quality service to customers. It was also promised that a new facility in Eastvale, California, will be opened in 2017 for technical collision repair and sales training for Volkswagen, Audi and Porsche.
