MISSISSAUGA, ON, Oct. 21 /CNW/ - John Levin, President and CEO of Kuehne + Nagel in Canada, announced the consolidation of the company's Canadian operations and simultaneous launch of a new OUT+PERFORM communications campaign. Together, the facility integration and high-octane messaging are designed to help customers outperform the competition while enabling employees to facilitate and communicate that strategy.

Kuehne + Nagel is a global provider of end-to-end, supply-chain-management solutions. The company employs approximately 1,100 employees in Canada, with about 400 of those in the Toronto area now centrally located in new national headquarters. This integration, combined with the OUT+PERFORM campaign, is intended to enable: 

• More effective collaboration to facilitate outstanding customer solutions
• Faster decision-making and problem resolution to maximize customer responsiveness
• Attraction and retention of the most talented people

"Our new facility reflects the fact that we have some of the best people in the industry developing outstanding supply chain solutions — solutions that truly help our customers outperform their competition," said John Levin. "Our new communications strategy is about reinforcing that strength and, more importantly, helping customers leverage it."

The OUT+PERFORM campaign comprises a number of components, from new customer communications to an internal communication and awards program. The campaign will appear in various media including online and direct marketing, and is aimed at helping current and prospective customers learn how Kuehne + Nagel's industry-leading logistics can create competitive advantage.
