On Sep. 20th, TVI Logistics had the pleasure of participating in FCAInnovate 2017. We were 1 of 12 companies in the automotive industry selected to present at this year’s session hosted by Fiat Chrysler Automobiles!

Our team had the extraordinary opportunity to highlight our value proposition and innovative logistics solutions to decision makers of over 150 Tier High Focus suppliers, senior managers and buyers, Tier 1 M/WBE and Veteran-owned businesses.

This upbeat “Shark-Tank” style atmosphere enabled companies to showcase their business model and products in a fresh and creative way, within a strict and exciting five-minute-pitch timeline.

We applaud the FCA Purchasing Team for this creative project which proved to be very convenient, direct and effective!

Our remarkable team -TVI Logistics [U.S. Foreign-Trade Zone #70]- embarked on a mission with the State of Michigan, Macomb County, and Baker Tilly, to host a special seminar on how Michican businesses can reduce their total landed costs by incorporating a public Foreign-Trade Zone into their supply chain.

In a supply chain, which exists to move goods from one point to another, no factor is more important than how goods are physically transported. Because how goods are transported is the most important part of a supply chain, nothing would alter the industry as much as a change in the transportation of goods. Driverless vehicles, specifically, are close to being the next big thing in supply chain management—and there’s historic precedent to believe they will greatly disrupt the industry. That’s why TVI Logistics, Your Supply Chain Management Company, we help companies make an impact.

Right Time, Right Place: The Basics of Air Freight
