Ⅱ. Reading Comprehension

CEV A Logistics is making the “logistics” part of its name

outdated, unless one stretches the term to mean more than

traditional transportation and warehousing. What the provider

does for the Michelin Tire Group in the U.S. is a prime (主要的)

example of that trend.

Under its former name of TNT Logistics, CEV A has an

extensive history of working with Michelin around the world. Five

years ago, Michelin North America signed a contract with the

then-parent of TNT, TPG N.V., handing over day-to-day operation

of the client’s tire distribution centers throughout the continent.

That deal came seven years after inception (开始、开端) of a

similar logistics services contract between the two companies in

the United Kingdom.

CEV A came into being last year, when TNT N.V. sold off its

contract logistics unit to Apollo Management, a New York-based

private equity firm. In the process, the company maintained the

specialized services that it had built up over the years on behalf

of tire manufactures. Today, CEV A has tire contracts in 17

countries on five continents.

In the U.S., certain services that CEV A performs for Michelin

on a regional basis exceed the boundaries of what some might

consider logistics. Gina Moon is customer service associate with

the Michelin Tire Group in Greenville, S. C. , U. S. headquarters of

the global concern. One of her accounts at that location is Utility

Trailer, which provides specialized equipment to move tires to
