You can read the experience report below:

„Our shadowing programme was a bit different from the usual. We started at 8 am in the Autonet Coffee Corner, where Tamás Ilonczai, Marketing Manager of Autonet Import Ltd. presented the day’s programme. The first step was to get acquainted with the logistics system, part of which we were able to see put into practice during a tour of the warehouse facilities in Satu Mare. Here, we were also given an insight into the automation systems that are currently under development. This was followed by an informative presentation by Tamás Ilonczai, who gave us a detailed look into the Group’s wide range of activities. After this introduction, we attended the operational meeting, which usually takes place at the beginning of every week. Our next stop was the office of Árpád Csehi, CEO of the SAG-Autonet Group, where we had a brief exchange of views, after which we attended an online data analytics meeting. After a short lunch break, we found ourselves back in the office of Árpád Csehi, where we attended another online meeting with Sager Martin, CIO of the SAG-Autonet Group. After a well-deserved 5-minute break, we joined a conversation between the Group CEO and the Group Logistics Manager. Afterwards, we had the opportunity to talk to Tamás Ilonczai and Matei Cristian, CEO of Autonet Import Ltd. about generational changes and the future of the automotive industry. Finally, we were able to meet co-owner Mihály Lieb, who gave us a lot of useful advice.

We could never have imagined that we would be able to get a comprehensive view of the activities of such a large and complex group of companies in one day and meet so many managers with a numerous amount of different duties.

We would like to thank the Autonet team, and especially Tamás Ilonczai, for this very informative day!”
