Kuehne+Nagel backs Schwalbe’s Vietnam expansion

Kuehne+Nagel is supporting the expansion of Schwalbe’s operations in Vietnam, marking a decade-long partnership between the two companies. As part of the development, Schwalbe’s export distribution centre will be expanded to nearly 20,000 square metres, enhancing its capacity to respond to growing global demand for bicycle tyres.

The expansion is expected to generate new employment opportunities for local workers and further strengthen Vietnam’s position as a strategic hub within Schwalbe’s global supply chain. The move also underscores the company’s commitment to long-term, sustainable growth in the region.

From the Vietnam facility, Schwalbe distributes its products to 43 international markets, serving customers across Europe, Asia, the Americas and Africa.

Bjoern Traemann, Managing Director of Kuehne+Nagel Vietnam, says: “We value our strong relationship with Schwalbe and look forward to the continued partnership. This expansion demonstrates how collaboration drives innovation and enables us to meet global customer demands sustainably. I would like to thank the teams from both companies for making this partnership possible.”

“We are proud to celebrate 10 years of partnership with Kuehne+Nagel. Their expertise and commitment to sustainability have been vital to our success. Looking ahead, we are confident in achieving our goals with the continued excellence of our partnership,” shares Vanessa Schulte, Schwalbe’s Head of Supply Chain Management.
