The two-year contract – with a possibility of a one-year extension - is a further expansion of Voith’s UK business which has grown considerably in facilities management and specialist technical areas of the automotive industry.
The Peugeot Citroen contract takes place in two locations. At Pinley House, the UK headquarters which employs 600 people for Peugeot Motor Company, Voith will carry out the cleaning of offices, post room, and reception as well as managing security and on-site facilities maintenance.
At Peugeot’s Tile Hill distribution centre, a 30,000 sq. metre warehouse that handles thousands of parts and accessories for dealer networks throughout the UK and Ireland, Voith will be responsible for cleaning, battery charging, and security services.
Dave Metcalfe, Peugeot’s facilities manager, said: "One of the reasons we chose Voith was that they demonstrated a pro-active approach to continually improving their procedures as they gained a detailed understanding of the tasks involved.”
Phil Spencer, Voith Industrial Services’ sales and business development director, said: "The Peugeot contract illustrates that we offer a wide range of specialist services to major international automotive companies and we are delighted to add Peugeot Citroen to our growing portfolio of major automotive customers.
