Pittsburgh, PA – July 22, 2009 GENCO Supply Chain Solutions , North America’s second largest and a Global Top 50 third-party logistics provider, today announced the acquisition of Dell’s North American remanufacturing operations. The contract coupled with GENCO’s existing reverse logistics service offerings provides Dell with a complete North American margin recovery solution.
The acquisition includes Dell’s receipt and remanufacturing operations include test, remanufacture, repair and refurbishment of desktop, notebook, server and storage systems, which Dell then sells as refurbished product. GENCO will extend similar service offerings to other manufacturers of electronic devices in the 298,000 square foot facility located in Lebanon, TN. GENCO has partnered with Ft. Worth, TX-based InteliSol to provide critical parts harvesting, management and end-of-life recovery services in the same facility.
We are extremely pleased to expand our partnership and range of value-added service offerings with Dell,” said Stephen Fraser, president and chief executive officer of GENCO’s reverse logistics groups. “The addition of Dell’s North American refurbishment capabilities and highly skilled team are a natural extension of our existing suite of margin recovery services, which include best-in-class returns management, software, transportation and product liquidation.”
