This report, the first to be published taking into account the impact of the
global financial crisis and the heightened economic volatility on the foot
print of the international automotive industry and the vulnerability of its
supply chain, provides a unique insight into the state of the industry in
mature, developed markets in Europe, North America and Asia as well as
offering a special focus on emerging market challenges of Russia, China and
India. It will be of interest to all those involved in planning for a future
within the automotive supply industry, as the issue of logistics grows in
importance and becomes of ever broader significance to the future of the
industry.
Background to this Research
In-bound logistics has been at the heart of the transformation of the
automotive industry of the last decade and its significance is likely, in
anything, to increase over the next several years. High quality logistics has
been critical to the geographical extension of the automotive supply chain
into emerging manufacturing countries. Further optimization of the supply
chain offers huge potential for cost saving and the lessons of best practice
on an international scale will drive the development of the future structure
and location of the global international supply base.
The report also includes 37 company profiles of all the major players in the
automotive logisitcs industry, covering their performance, key contacts and
