Automotive supply chains are rarely predictable. Weather delays, port congestion, regulatory changes, or sudden volume spikes can disrupt production and delay dealership deliveries. Each delay sends ripples through the entire network. OEMs face this pressure daily and need more than just a service provider—they need a flexible, fast-moving partner who understands every link in the chain and can adapt in real time to keep vehicles moving without interruption.
Amports steps in as more than a logistics provider—assuming full care and custody of every vehicle the moment it arrives, treating each one as its own, and guiding it through every phase until delivery. The company processes, stores, and transports vehicles for major OEMs across North America. It inspects, accessorizes, and prepares vehicles arriving by ship, truck, or rail, ensuring that each one reaches the dealership in perfect condition.
Every vehicle undergoes a full inspection. If the automaker requests additional services such as accessory installation or minor bodywork, the vehicle is routed to the appropriate facility. Cars are stored securely until cleared for delivery, then transported via coordinated truck or rail solutions.
“We provide detailed data tracking, so manufacturers know where every vehicle stands in real time,” says Vee Kachroo, CEO.
Amports’ operations span 13 strategically located facilities across the U.S. and Mexico, all with direct access to highways and rail. The company is certified to perform technical services for manufacturers like GM, VW, and Stellantis, and is trusted to do so at scale. With over 1,500 acres of operational space, Amports can absorb shipment surges, buffer against port disruptions, and hold inventory when vehicles are rerouted or delayed.
The company has also expanded into adjacent services such as intermodal logistics and stevedoring, assuming greater responsibility within the supply chain so OEMs don’t have to manage multiple vendors.
A standout example is Amports’ heat treatment program for vehicles bound for Australia and New Zealand. These countries have strict biosecurity laws prohibiting the entry of seeds, insects, or organic debris. Amports heat-treats vehicles to kill potential contaminants, vacuums underneath, and inspects every panel to ensure compliance. This helps automakers avoid costly delays or rejections upon arrival.
Amports is evolving into a broader supply chain enabler. OEMs now turn to the company for solutions such as establishing free trade zones to manage tariff exposure, or setting up new rail yards and inland terminals. Its recent move into stevedoring—directly handling vessel offloads—has improved productivity and accountability. With deeper integration at its facilities, Amports reduces handoffs and keeps OEMs closer to their operations. Backed by skilled teams, proven systems, and robust infrastructure, Amports continues to take on more responsibility— precisely where automakers need it most.
Amports’ success is closely tied to its collaborative relationships with port authorities and local partners. Behind every smooth delivery is a network of seamless coordination—with bar pilots, engineers, and municipal leaders. These relationships make all the difference. Amports’ ability to integrate with every layer of the logistics chain reflects its larger commitment to act as a steward of its customers’ products and reputations.
In every port, every terminal, and every decision, Amports leads with accountability, partnership, and precision—driven by a relentless focus on quality.
