Honda Selects BuyCo And FourKites To Digitize And Drive Efficiency In Its End-To-End International Shipping Operations Honda’s divisions of Motorcycle and Power Products Operations have strategically selected BuyCo and leading real-time supply chain visibility provider FourKites to streamline their container shipping operations. With a focus on boosting efficiency and enhancing visibility, Honda’s collaboration with these industry-leading technology providers marks a significant step toward advancing its supply chain. Leveraging BuyCo’s extensive ocean carrier network, Honda can now easily access shipping schedules from its carriers and select the optimal option based on criteria, such as CO2 emissions, cost, ETA and allocations. Booking is then sent directly from the platform, enabling Honda to save working time for bookings. Moreover, BuyCo empowers Honda with strong key performance indicators to improve processes, optimize inventory and reduce costs. By closely monitoring CO2 emissions, Honda is able to reduce its carbon footprint, while detention and demurrage tracking and alerts allow them to minimize costs. In tandem, FourKites plays an instrumental role in providing Honda with an unparalleled visibility and container tracking solution. With direct access to major ocean carriers, real-time AIS data, terminal insights and dray carriers’ integration, Honda gains reliable visibility over both land and ocean transportation, allowing the company to closely monitor its containers, and proactively avoid or react faster to exceptions. “The importance of international shipment visibility continues to increase across our customer base, especially with ongoing disruptions such as port strikes, global conflict and climate-related changes,” said Mathew Elenjickal, founder and CEO of FourKites. “Our partnership with BuyCo helps customers improve the management of ocean shipping and react quickly to drive agility and adapt to such disruptions. We are honored to have been selected by Honda to achieve its digitization objectives.” Moreover, FourKites is working closely with its exclusive partner in Japan, Mitsui Knowledge Industry Co., LTD. (“MKI”), to deliver hyper-localized solutions for the Japanese market that meet the high expectations and unique needs of Honda and others in the region. Carl Lauron, CEO at BuyCo, stated, “We are thrilled to partner with FourKites and extend our unwavering support to Honda, delivering an efficient supply chain solution, all while supporting their carbon reduction goals.” By embracing cutting-edge technologies and solutions, Honda reinforces its position as a global leader in the motorcycle and power products industry, ensuring exceptional efficiency and service.BuyCo Carl L.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝗧𝗿𝘂𝗺𝗽 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 The 47th President of the USA is promising to MAGA. I think, the whole world will benefit from having policies that are pro-life, pro-faith, and pro-peace, but what about our automotive world in Germany? 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗳𝘀 on imported cars, and moving manufacturing to the US will have an impact on companies not producing cars in Germany already. • 𝗕𝗠𝗪 has a plant in Spartanburg, South Carolina with a production capacity of 1500 cars per day, all aimed at the local market.✅ • 𝗩𝗼𝗹𝗸𝘀𝘄𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗻 has a plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and has produced 175000 cars last year, all aimed at the local market. ✅ • 𝗠𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗲𝗱𝗲𝘀-𝗕𝗲𝗻𝘇 has production plants in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and Charleston, South Carolina, which produced 346000 cars last year, all aimed at the local market.✅ If a 10% tariff is introduced on all imported vehicles, I expect production capacity in these plants will need to be increased. This will boost the performance of our German brands. Although I am of the opinion that increasing tariffs is not the best way to boost the local economy, rather to even the playing field, I still expect that in the short term it may be beneficial until the industry & regulators figure out how to respond to global competition in a meaningful manner. Regarding 𝗘𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, and with Mr. Musk in the center of Mr. Trump's MAGA strategy, one can expect that electric cars will co-exist beside their fuel-powered counterparts. This will also be a good outcome given the obvious lack of infrastructure support, source material, and massive production cost disadvantage that electric cars comes with. This will lead to an increase in overall sales. These policies may have a spill effect into the EU, and similarly increase the local market sales. Regarding 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 on the German industry. Given the Peace promises made, one should expect a rapid end to the current wars in Ukraine and Middle East. This will surely have an impact on the inflated production costs in Germany, given the inflated energy costs. Regarding 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗘𝗩'𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲. The Chinese auto-makers have come a long way, and they will not just give up on their potential market shares that easily. They have the backing needed to invest heavily and gain market shares both in US and EU. I expect, local production factories for cars that meet local market regulatory requirements will be established both in the US and in EU. This will in turn positively impact the full automotive supply chain in EU/US. 𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘎𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘖𝘌𝘔'𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘢 𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘢𝘴 𝘔𝘳. 𝘛𝘳𝘶𝘮𝘱𝘴 𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘤 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘞𝘩𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘏𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘦.
