CEVA and Mercedes-Benz extend business partnership in Brazil
GERMAN car manufacturer Mercedes-Benz's Brazilian division has renewed its existing business partnership with CEVA Logistics.
Under the renewed contract, in-house logistics services at the customer's plant in the city of Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais, will be maintained and renewed for an additional three years. CEVA's services to Mercedes-Benz are concentrated in the southeast region of Brazil.
The operation encompasses materials handling, line feeding and external warehousing. In addition, two new agreements have been reached with Mercedes Benz, which will extend elements of the contract for three and five years respectively.
CEVA will now be responsible for providing interplant transportation at the Juiz de Fora plant and also packaging services at the customer's spare parts distribution centre at Campinas, Sao Paulo.
To meet the new and extended contract CEVA will employ an additional 280 people.
Said CEVA vice-president Fabio Mendunekas: "Mercedes-Benz is a market leader in the truck and bus segment in Brazil. For CEVA it is a great honour to continue and expand the partnership with such a strategic customer".
He believes that competitive costs, operational excellence and innovative processes are the key factors that add up to a strong, long-term commercial relationship between both parties, London's Air Cargo News reported.
