Heavy-equipment manufacturer Caterpillar has officially inaugurated its new parts distribution facility, near Johannesburg, in Gauteng. The 60 000 m2 facility consolidates two smaller parts-distribution sites – Linbro Park and Isando – and offers several advantages, including the ability to work more efficiently while increasing capacity to provide unmatched parts availability for customers across Africa. The facility will serve more than 10 000 customers in 11 countries and will stock more than 110 000 parts to service machines in the region. Caterpillar started operations in May.
