Automation doesn’t make us sucessful: the people do. People who develop and implement concepts in a challenging environment“ Christoph Keim, Founder and Managing Partner Chris Keim Com GmbH is an international, owner-run company which specialises in distribution and logistics. We primarily work with the world’s leading electronics manufacturers and distributors. We are based in the Stuttgart area and have around 100 employees. Together, we support corporate clients in their sales responsibilities and logistics – in the broadest sense of the term. We also customise high-quality goods for individual customers and sell electronics to wholesalers and end customers. CKC started as a mail-order company in 1992 and soon entered into partnerships with debitel and Siemens and developed its own shops. It became a logistics service provider before also expanding its distribution business for Samsung, SonyEricsson and others. Collaborations with Kodak Digital, Aston Martin and O2 Germany continued this trend towards expansion and specialisation. Our complex is at the heart of one of Germany’s strongest business regions. It is a stone’s throw from the Leonberg motorway interchange and Stuttgart Airport – an optimum infrastructure which makes sure our corporate and major clients benefit from smooth and economical transport services. We are a highly developed and open company which is still growing. Our annual turnover amounts to around €25 million. Our modern offices cover 1,200 sq m and house highly qualified employees who specialise in customer service, organisation and sales. And with 3,500 sq m of warehousing space, we can store 2,500 pallets. Around 2,000 units leave CKC every single day. One of our key focuses is internal security. This guarantees we handle goods reliably and fully comply with insurance stipulations. text/html 2006-12-12T14:14:18+01:00 http://www.chriskeimcom.info http://www.chriskeimcom.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=19&Itemid=123 „We value Chris Keim Com as a quick, reliable and uncomplicated business partner – all of these factors are critical for our company’s fast-paced digital business.“ Michael Maier, Sales Director, Consumer Digital Imaging Group, Kodak GmbH In the fast-paced market of electronics retail, we are increasingly taking on the role of a wholesaler. We focus on leading companies and major clients, as well as end customers – and we source all our product from the manufacturers directly. We I mean I businessWith our flexibility and years of experience on the market, we can be depended on to deal with large volumes of goods, and our outstanding distribution network guarantees that the goods get there too, whatever the sales channel. Chris Keim Com enjoys an excellent reputation in industry and therefore has a very close relationship to the market, both of which give our customers added security and keep us a step ahead when it comes to identifying the latest market developments. Our expertise can replace entire departments in our clients’ companies – which is especially true of mail order: we run our own e-commerce platform so we know the trade in and out, and that includes knowing what our customers need. Our target group is people who buy electronic equipment, be they end customers, wholesalers or consumer electronics retailers who then resell the goods. We also occasionally work for corporate clients who purchase large volumes for their internal office supplies, for example. Our logistics and fulfilment divisions often create interesting synergy effects: we can generally depend on our own stocks, and if not, we procure the necessary goods with our customary efficiency. We then customise the goods with individual configurations or bundle them into customer-specific packs, before storing them in conditions which fully comply with insurance stipulations – until the goods are finally ready for delivery. That means that they either leave our warehouses untouched with a delivery note inside or branded with the customer’s logo. Because we use a relatively low level of automation in our processes, we can guarantee quality, speed and care in meeting your demands. It goes without saying that we have digital system connections. We also offer detailed consultations before and after our services, all-round support and a whole range of sales services, e.g. supporting marketing and communications measures in our capacity as a strategic partner at the cutting edge of the market. text/html 2006-12-13T15:28:47+01:00 http://www.chriskeimcom.info http://www.chriskeimcom.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21&Itemid=76 „I’ve found Chris Keim Com to be a very open company which is flexible and always responds to its customers’ needs, delivering impressive quality and impeccable inventory management at all times.“ Linda Behrens, Head of Logistics, debitel AG Our logistics division does much more than just deliver and collect goods. We don’t see ourselves as a haulier – but as a company which provides cost-cutting outsourcing services, from order management to returns handling. Taking stock Whether you deliver your goods just in time or decide to take advantage of our spacious warehouse facilities to store them until you’re ready, we provide a wide range of services for electronics and retail companies – mail order and direct marketing, order completion for online shops, advertising, prepaid cards and voucher logistics, and customer loyalty schemes. CKC can take on entire divisions – including their employees – if desired. We take care of incoming and outgoing goods, order logging and order processing, inventory management and making out production orders. We also operate a hotline for any questions and have staff ready for all your returns management and repair needs. We send packages with the best courier services and pallets with your or our preferred hauliers. We can, of course, customise products to meet your needs and provide a quick and reliable configuration service for electronic articles such as mobile phones. For all high-value and hard-to-insure goods, we can guarantee a highly secure infrastructure with a whole range of measures to protect you against loss. That includes our in-house security service, 24/7 video surveillance, storage in different fire protection sectors and meeting all insurance stipulations. Separate storage areas can be set up in open and closed warehousing space, whilst our warehouse management system adapts perfectly to your inventory control system via direct digital interfacing. And with our excellent distribution network, we can also optimise purchasing or alternative sales using various channels. text/html 2006-12-12T14:06:55+01:00 http://www.chriskeimcom.info http://www.chriskeimcom.info/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=20&Itemid=77 „I have been working with Chris Keim Com for years now, both as a service provider and a customer, and they’ve never ceased to impress me with their state-of-the-art ideas, both in theory and in practice.“ Richard Häusler, former Key Account Manager, Nokia GmbH In the age of global markets and mass production, we crave for something out of the ordinary – an individual, unique, unmistakable touch. Customer-specific product design and bundling is one of our favourite jobs. Love I your I customersCreativity is a renewable commodity, and we provide the best conditions to nurture it. That results in incentives and other added value, the likes of which you’ve only dreamt of. Develop and affix special labels, customise electronics, printed matter and other products, or bundle goods in new sleeves or boxes ready for dispatch ... The optioins open to you are as diverse as your target groups’ tastes. We also perform co-branding for complete packages or hardware configuration plus software installation – all to the highest quality standards, with the greatest of care, and on time. You can also benefit from our experience and creativity with our integral concepts for your products and customisation needs.

Buyers around the world were delighted when they took delivery of their brand-new Aston Martin XY2 and received a mobile phone with their name engraved on it – sent by post complete with special packaging and a high-quality brochure. This too was CKC’s idea. Our customising division can be integrated seamlessly into our distribution and logistics services or purchased as a stand-alone service.
