Its sister division—the automobile maker—usually gets all the glory, but Toyota's lift truck manufacturing unit recently earned some accolades of its own. Toyota Industries Corp. (TICO) has been named to Fortune magazine's list of the World's Most Admired Companies.

This is the first time that TICO has appeared on the Global 50 All-Star list, where it was ranked as the 36th most admired company, tied with Lowe's. On top of that, TICO earned the top spot in the motor vehicle parts industry ranking, moving up from last year's number two position.

Though the American public is far more familiar with Toyota's cars, Toyota is also a leading supplier of lift trucks worldwide. In fact, TICO subsidiary Toyota Material Handling, U.S.A., Inc. (TMHU) has been the top-selling lift-truck supplier in the United States since 2002. TMHU manufactures most of the lift trucks it sells in the United States at a plant in Columbus, Ind.

As for Toyota Motor Corp., the better-known automobile manufacturing division, it didn't do too badly either. Toyota Motor grabbed the number two spot on the World's Most Admired Companies list.

Lessons from CSCMP’s Annual Report Card for Shippers and Carriers

DCV-TV 4: Viewer Contributed
Recently, the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) released their 33rd Annual State of Logistics Report which is created by AT Kearny. I've viewed this as basically a "Report Card" for shippers and carriers since it offers a comprehensive view of what they both have dealt with in the past year,...
