The European aftermarket is also a highly
competitive market, where quality is still
an important choice criterion, followed
by availability and price. With the online
shopping boom hitting the aftermarket
sector, an increasing number of customers
are using digital channels to compare prices,
obtain perspectives on product quality and
determine which ones to buy. Consequently,
parts ecommerce is increasing price
transparency and providing greater diversity
of supply.
In this competitive ecommerce market,
aftermarket suppliers can differentiate
themselves from their competitors by
providing the quickest delivery service.
Same-day delivery, for example, boosting
online aftermarket sales by offering the
comfort and convenience of online shopping
combined with immediate product access of
bricks and mortar stores. Klarius monitors its
broad range of emission control components
and for many distribution customers now
supplies through a virtual warehousing
system to ensure product availability and
stock transparency across all facilities and
warehouses.
To guarantee a same-day delivery service,
having a strong logistics network and
management system is key. Therefore,
aftermarket retailers can access both main
and decentralised warehouses, rely on
dedicated delivery fleets and have a real-
time from suppliers that have an overview of
inventories across their warehouses.
What emerges from these automotive
aftermarket trends is that successful
initiatives to exploit the potential of this
market consist of using changes in the
supply infrastructure being driven by
manufacturers and distributors. Improving
and extending service offering and delivery
options, adapting to local requirements and
setting-up carefully profiled local stock, while
optimizing the planning processes for stock
replacement by using supply routes that
offer both extensive range and immediate
availability.
With the aim of providing its customers
with this kind of high-quality service, Klarius
Products Ltd has been addressing these
trends and evolving its business model.
Klarius is continuously expanding its UK
manufactured high-quality product range,
and now counts over 10,000 items in its
range. These are available across Europe,
where Klarius is constantly setting up
new profiled stock locations with a rising
number of partners and online retailers.
The availability of the entire Klarius range
is enhanced through a virtual warehousing
system to ensure product availability and
flexible stockholding solutions across all
facilities and warehouses.
Thanks to national and international
collaborations, supported by improved
local logistics solutions, the company has
pioneered ‘next-morning’ delivery from the
manufacturer, which is now being extended
across Europe.
