NAXOS Opens its new logistics centre in July
Effective July 1st, Naxos will open its new logistics centre NGL (Naxos Global Logistics) in Kirchheim, near Munich. With the launch of NGL, Naxos will have an operations centre in a centralized location for its distribution activities throughout Germany and worldwide markets.
Mr. Chris Voll, Managing Director of NAXOS Germany, announced the appointment of Mr. Mohamed El Wakil, former Chief Financial Officer of NAXOS Germany, to the post of Managing Director of NGL. “I’m very pleased that we could staff this important position with a veteran member of the NAXOS family, “ said Voll. “Through his experience and know - how, Mr. El Wakil has the skills and experience for this task.”
Voll spoke of the benefits of the new logistics centre, “With NGL we can accommodate the still unbowed demand for Classical Music physical product and also optimize our service to our German and international distribution partners.”
“Our customer service will be even better,” said El Wakil. “Apart from new telephone and fax numbers, there will be little change in how we do business with our German partners, I am looking forward to this new step in our business.” NGL benefits from a good central location. “The new logistics centre in Munich/Kirchheim is seamlessly connected to the local infrastructure,” said El Wakil. “The nearby Munich airport and motorway provide an ideal transit route which optimizes the distribution process. Due to its size and location, NGL will provide an ideal base for the worldwide expansion of NAXOS distribution activities.”
