Exel will deliver Mopar parts to 270 Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge dealers in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan and Wisconsin from Chrysler LLC’s Mopar Parts Distribution Center (PDC) in Naperville, IL.
Exel’s centralized delivery service support team utilizes a suite of dedicated fleet technology solutions—such as electronic proof-of-delivery, wireless communications and scheduling applications—in addition to effective fleet management to drive efficiencies and optimize delivery routes.
The new contract will create an estimated 36 jobs in Naperville including drivers, supervisors and routers.
Exel now provides dedicated delivery services to 10 Mopar PDCs — nine in the United States and one in Toluca, Mexico.
