Reliable service on every route – WIEGEL is close to the customer

Denkendorf – Five tours per week. Always committed to the highest quality. Georg Krafft has been driving for WIEGEL at the Denkendorf site for over 30 years – and is a key part of a well-planned, customer-focused logistics system.

His mission: pick up steel to be hot-dip galvanized and then return it safely and on time to our customers. Flexibility is key – because not every customer has the same schedule. Georg arranges pick-ups directly by phone, coordinating load volumes, arrival times, and priorities. “One needs the steel early because it’s headed to the construction site – the other isn’t ready yet. You have to know and take that into account.”

Coordinated logistics

Through close cooperation with his eight fellow drivers at the site, empty runs are avoided and the routes are optimally coordinated. A continuous flow of information between drivers, customers, and the plant ensures smooth operations – efficient, fuel-saving, and reliable. This coordinated logistics not only ensures satisfied customers but also optimizes production processes at the plant. Less waiting time, more planning reliability, better capacity utilization – saving both time and costs.

This is how Georg Krafft and the entire WIEGEL logistics team make a decisive contribution every day to the quality of our service: ensuring that our customers’ galvanized steel arrives safely, quickly, and reliably.
