Genie has appointed TREX.PARTS, based in Sittensen, Germany, as its new Genie Authorised Parts Provider for the country.
TREX.PARTS, an efficient B2B-solution for parts within the forklift and industrial trucks sector, offers a cross-brand, user-friendly online platform destined to supply independent workshops and service technicians with parts for maintenance, service and repair.
With its new distributor agreement with Genie, TREX.PARTS is well positioned to provide easy access to Genie parts to a new, expanded customer group, send the access specialist.
It added that new Genie parts customers will benefit from this partnership in four ways as customers can quickly search and find the parts needed, selecting the quality they require for their upcoming repairs; there will be high availability of fast-moving parts for aerial work platforms; there is available advice from a dynamic team both in the office and in the field; and there are synergies with other business areas, e.g. in the forklift business as customers can get everything from a sole source.
Nothing will change for existing Genie parts customers, said the manufacturer, and they can continue to order as usual from Genie dealers or directly from Genie’s online platform.
However, this new partnership will appeal to new B2B customers with a high parts demand who do not have direct access to Genie spare parts. Because most of the Genie fast movers are in stock, TREX.PARTS is able to ship these parts directly from its own warehouse in a timely manner
“We are delighted to have found not only a professional partner in Genie, but also a perfect addition to our product range. For TREX.PARTS, this co-operation marks our entry into the aerial work platform industry,” Christoph Böttcher, Managing Director of TREX.PARTS, said of the new partnership. “TREX.PARTS and Genie share more than just their strong presence and excellent reputation in the market. We also share the same values that have fueled our respective successes. With this partnership, we can both capitalize on synergies that will significantly benefit customers – a market that deserves only the best products and spare parts.”
Dominique Luijckx, Genie Parts & Support Director for EMEA, added: “We want to accelerate and focus on customer experience and improve the route to market with this new target group of customers servicing or owning one or two Genie lifts. This step is an addition to the offerings of dealers in the region, and our Genie parts business itself. It opens the doors to a fully new target group not serviced so far. The location of our new Authorised Parts Provider (APP) in the northwest of Germany is strategic to receive the most common parts the next day, and their commitment to quality makes them an excellent fit for Genie.”
