Not only for Volkswagen and for car drivers, SCHNELLECKE but also for logistics partners like Schnellecke. This is why we are particularly proud to have been part of it in Zwickau from the very beginning. We have invested considerably in this. During the factory conversion at Volkswagen, we further qualified many of our employees through training COVER STORY: programs.

Schnellecke has been working for FCA for a year and supplies the Sevel production line in Atessa, Italy, with parts just in sequence. We will also be reporting on that in this issue, as well as on the Bologna site, where Schnellecke has been handling the entire plant logistics for Lamborghini for many years.

The typical reaction in such a case would have been to let go of the employ- ees whose jobs were no longer needed. However, Schnellecke went a different way. “Together we have initiated a process that is geared towards site development and job safeguarding in the company,” says Works Council Chairwoman Elke Merkel. The primary goals of the expansion of innova- tion competence and the maintaining of competitiveness, job security and socially responsible employment models, as well as the further development of the company as an attractive employer were laid down in a process agreement. “SLS Future” is the name of the pro- gram signed by Management and Works Council in October 2017. It includes compa- rarily needed employees to process peak orders.

  • Ns. Rif. 1576-GM Del 12-5-20
    Media Information Automobili Lamborghini and The Italian Sea Group unveil the motor yacht ‘Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63’ Sant’Agata Bolognese/Marina di Carrara, 30 June 2020 – Automobili Lamborghini and The Italian Sea Group present the worldwide premiere of ‘Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63’, the Tecnomar fleet’s new motor yacht available in a limited edition in reference to Lamborghini’s 1963 foundation. Performance, driving pleasure, attention to quality and details, emotion: these are the emotive features combined within the Tecnomar for Lamborghini 63, thanks to innovative engineering solutions and a distinct design unique to shared Italian style and tradition. This motor yacht project, developed by The Italian Sea Group, started with several collaborative sessions with the contribution of Lamborghini’s Centro Stile and inspiration from the Lamborghini Sián FKP 37: the hybrid super sports car incorporating benchmarking new supercapacitor and materials science technologies, that anticipates the future with an unmistakable design and completely customizable colour and details. The challenge of re-interpreting the common DNA traits of both brands has inspired all phases of the project, from the design principles to the definition of technical characteristics ensuring incredible performance, without neglecting the quality of materials and careful attention to detail. Stefano Domenicali, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini said: ”This yacht represents the significance of creating a valuable partnership, at its best: our co-operation allows the essence of both organisations’ style and expertise to be transferred to different worlds, sharing in their diversity to interpret and add value to the final product in a new environment. If I had to imagine a Lamborghini on water, this would be my vision.
