Whitepaper: Partnerships in automotive logistics
Discover the growing imperative for industry collaboration to achieve operational efficiencies, capacity enhancement, adapting to EVs and sustainability
In an era marked by global challenges, automotive logistics professionals face a transformative journey towards operational excellence and sustainability. The post-Covid world, marked by supply chain disruptions and an intensified push for sustainability, necessitates a strategic engagement between carmakers, suppliers and logistics partners. This whitepaper, a collaboration between Automotive Logistics and MSC, delves into the critical role of partnerships in addressing industry-wide challenges and fostering innovation within the supply chain.

Partnerships are therefore critical in addressing those industry-wide challenges”
