In a major expansion of its international aerospace business, CEVA Logistics announced that it has been awarded a contract to manage production supply for Airbus at the aircraft manufacturer's assembly site in Hamburg, Germany.

CEVA will operate the production supply logistics on behalf of Airbus at multiple locations with a total area of 58,631 m².

Among the services that will be provided are inbound, put away/storage, pick and prepare, the marketplace, internal transport, delivery to point of use, returns, empties handling and external dispatch.

Within the scope of the new contract, CEVA said it will initiate and implement logistics improvements and projects, using LEAN principles to further increase efficiency within the facilities.

CEVA’s successful management of a spare parts and components contract for Airbus awarded in 2020 was key to the awarding of this new contract.

“CEVA's capabilities and commitment in aerospace logistics have once again been recognized by Airbus with the awarding of this new contract. Our two companies have successfully worked together previously on other projects, most recently in Hamburg on the spare parts and components contract," said  Mathieu Friedberg, CEVA CEO.
