Apart from spare parts sold under the brand names of manufacturers, the Company distributes spare parts of its own brand, KAGER. Three years since the launch of the brand Fota offers 22 thousand parts in 47 production lines. At present the share of the KAGER brand in the Company’s sales amounts to 18%. The aim of the Company is that by 2009 KAGER should generate 50% of income on the Group’s sales in personal cars sector. KAGER products are manufactured by established automotive companies, e.g. Bosch and Metelli.

The area of the central warehouse amounts to 20 thou. m². The logistics centre fulfils about 420 thousand orders per month. As a result about 1 million parts leave the warehouse a month.

This fast fulfilment of orders is possible also with the on-line sale via Internet. In 2000 Fota was the first distributor in Poland to start this option of purchases. At present the Company receives about 7 thousand orders per day via this channel.
