Maruti to set up vehicle stock holding yards across country to reduce waiting period

Maruti Stockyard

Maruti Suzuki, India’s largest car maker, has announced setting up of stock holding yards across the nation. The yards will be used by the company for storing vehicles which will help them in controlling supply of cars to the customers and reducing waiting periods.

The company has earmarked INR 200 crore for new holding yards and showrooms around the country. The yards, on about 25 acres will also help reduce dealer working capital needs as they can reduce their vehicle stocks.

Bangalore gets the first of these facilities. Company has acquired land for the project and has announced opening of the facility within six months time. Some of maruti’s bestseller like the Swift, Swift Dzire and Eeco who have waiting periods of over four months will make up a large proportion of these spaces.

“The intention is to set up at least one stockyard in each of the zones. Such a concept is important for a vast country like India and will reduce the waiting period for the customers. Very often there is a mis-match between the variant and colour of a particular car that a customer wants and the car that is available at the dealership. Setting up regional stockyards will increase availability of the cars and reduce time of transportation,” a company official told.
