“This award is about recognizing the relationships we have with
customers and the impact we’re making on their business,” says T.J.
Srinivasaraj, vice president of South Asia at C.H. Robinson. “We
often hear that navigating logistics in India can be challenging.
Our local expertise is a differentiator and eases that process for
our customers.”
C.H. Robinson’s technology solution was key to winning this
award. With Navisphere®, C.H. Robinson’s single instance global
technology platform, companies can track and trace their shipments
in real time, gaining true global supply chain visibility. C.H.
Robinson is one of the only 3PLs offering global technology in the
region.
“A major lack of transparency is a continuous challenge in
international business,” says Shaun Srivastava, route development
manager at C.H. Robinson. “But at C.H. Robinson, we’re the eyes and
ears on the ground for our customers. We can show them what’s
happening with their shipments in real time using Navisphere®,
ultimately making their job easier.”
IACC presented the award to C.H. Robinson at the 13th
Indo-American Corporate Excellence Awards on July 27, 2017, in
