NOVEMBER - DECEMBER 2025 LOGISTICS AND TRANSPORTATION REVIEW 8 In summary, this is how we understand the supply chain methodology. It encompasses all activities, businesses, and services we provide to our customers.For more than 80 years in the parts and equipment solutions market, Sotreq is one of the most successful cases of companies that were born to operate in various sectors, with emphasis on the markets of construction, mining, energy, oil, gas and maritime, forestry, and agribusiness. With 100 percent Brazilian capital, it started its operation through the representation of the CAT brand in Brazil, based on a partnership with Caterpillar. Today, its range of solutions covers several other global partners such as Trimble, Rajant, Ponsse, Resemin, Michelin, Agco, among others.In 2020, to manage the largest stock we have, we implemented a tool developed by CAT that treats each demand curve with the most appropriate algorithms in each situation.To better serve our customers and being aware of the challenges that are imposed daily, Sotreq has made strong investments in its logistics structure and infrastructure over the last few years. We invested in management systems, such as WMS (Warehouse Management System) and TMS (Transportation By Renato Ferrari, Head of Logistics, Products & Spare Parts, Sotreq S/ASOTREQ STRIVING PARTS LOGISTICS EXCELLENCE TO SERVE CUSTOMERSWe are a company that always seeks to innovate and bring new proposals and solutions to our customersManagement System). As well as automated storage solutions (VLMs - Vertical Lift Modules), in partnership with SSI Schafer. The last one brought important gains in the face of the challenges of increasing our availability for immediate customer service and helping us to reduce handling costs through productivity gains.The implemented applications brought the `goods to person' concept to our parts distribution centers, improving our performance and costs per transaction, providing yet another competitive advantage for our business.Renato FerrariOPINIONIN MY
