The new centre is a collaboration with Agility, a global logistics provider, which is hosting and managing the new facility at the Jebel Ali Free Zone in Dubai.

It will provide parts support for dealers and customers of Bobcat and Doosan Portable Power products in the Middle East and Africa (MEA) region. In combination with the existing Doosan parts distribution centre at Puurs in Belgium, the company will now be able to deliver parts to over 90% of the region within 24 hours.

Addressing dealers and other guests at the centre's inauguration, Gaby Rhayem, regional director in Middle East and North Africa, said: "With the opening of the new Dubai PDC, we will be able to provide a much better parts service for our dealers and customers throughout the MEA region. As well as enhancing our aftermarket service, the new PDC demonstrates our strong commitment to the MEA market."
