Francois Wolberg


ATLANTA—C.H. Robinson may not be a household name in the rug business, but with more than 11,000 employees and 2013 gross revenues of $12.8 billion, it is one of the largest third party logistics providers in the world, and specializes in global transportation logistics services.

It’s a far cry from a time when getting products to market was handled by “shipping companies.” In today’s marketplace, logistics providers move products from point A to point B. C.H. Robinson provides worldwide transportation services, fresh produce sourcing, and supply chain services.

The company has offices in North America, Europe, Asia and South America, and the Middle East, and has 63,000 transportation providers worldwide, including contract motor carriers, railroads, air freight carriers, and ocean carriers.

“Our integrated service model is powered by skilled transportation experts, a worldwide office network, and one of the only truly global technology platforms in the world,” noted Francois Wolberg of C.H. Robinson Global Textile Logistics.

“Our Global Textile Logistics division is focused on being set up in countries where rugs are produced. We have a strong presence in India, Egypt, China, Belgium, Pakistan, and Turkey. Our ability to ship from these countries, and our proven track record of high quality service and communication, is recognizable to our readers, and can bring value to the rug industry. Global Textile Logistics experts can determine how to ship the most efficiently at the lowest cost possible. In today’s world, technology enables people around the world to contact each other at any time. However, we still need experts who understand the transportation challenges certain countries might face. C.H. Robinson is more than a logistics provider for the rug industry. We listen to customers and adapt to their needs and specific requirements.”
