CEVA Logistics has been appointed to operate the first distribution centre in Asia Pacific for Honeywell Aerospace Trading.

According to CEVA, the new facility is based at the Bukit Jelutong Industrial Park in Kuala Lumpur and provides supply chain solutions for HAT’s pre-owned certified parts to end users.

This new facility will be an extra operation.”
