Benteler is a global automotive leader, specializing in high-quality components. We partner with basically every major OEM in North America. Our biggest are BMW, Volkswagen, Ford, and Tesla.
Our C.H. Robinson team is really knowledgeable. They have strong expertise within the transportation market, also operationally within the automotive vertical. They understand what we need and the way that they handle our operations is really an extension of Benteler’s business itself.
On-time performance is the most important part. A lot of automotive supply chains are just in time, just in sequence, which means for us we carry very little inventory on hand. Ensuring the next truck arrives when we’re scheduled to arrive is important for us to mitigate any downtime at our facility, or by extension, our customers’.
Our supply chain is really a global one, but the biggest portion of our volume is coming from Mexico. The value that C.H. Robinson brings in a cross-border environment, being such a large provider on the southern border, no matter what the problem is, no matter what the environment is in the market, they’re able to support us with a solution. Being able to leverage C.H. Robinson expertise, their scale, and the continued involvement of C.H. Robinson in improving our day-to-day operations makes them a vital partner for the future.
