Komatsu has revealed plans to transform its parts depot in Edmonton, Alberta, into a full-service distribution centre.
The new facility, which will encompass 135,000 square feet, will double the capacity of Komatsu’s existing warehouse. This will provide 24-hour delivery capabilities to its dealers in western Canada.
“Our customers rely on Komatsu for uptime and productivity, and this investment ensures we can meet those expectations faster and more efficiently than ever,” Komatsu vice president of parts and infrastructure Danny Murtagh said.
“By bringing parts closer to where our customers operate, we’re cutting lead times, boosting availability and improving customer service.”
According to Komatsu, the transformation of the Edmonton facility from a regional depot to an integrated service hub will benefit customers. The facility will be key to Komatsu’s North American logistics network and also strengthen supply routes from Komatsu’s global manufacturing hubs in Japan and Indonesia.
Komatsu North America chief executive officer Rod Bull said the announcement underlines Komatsu’s long-term confidence in its Canadian dealer partners and in the Canadian market.
“Canada is a core market for Komatsu. This expansion is not just about space — it’s about service, and making sure our dealers and customers have what they need, when they need it,” he said.
