Welcome

Dear Vendor Partner:

Welcome to Ingram Micro’s North American Routing Guide, March 2008 Edition. Please review the guide carefully as the preferred Inbound Carriers have been updated, in addition to other minor changes. Our aim is to keep improving our collective supply chain efficiencies, and constantly increase our value as a fulfillment and logistics solution to all of our vendor partners.

Updates to the routing guide are primarily related to the following:

• Routing of Ingram Micro Purchase Orders shipping from US origins to Canada. Purchase Orders destined for delivery to our Mississauga, Ontario, distribution center are now routed direct to Mississauga, Ontario NOT through Williamsville, NY

• Carrier routing changes have been made to the Routing Matrix for Inbound PO and Direct to Customer shipments

• Receiving appointment contacts have been updated

• Carrier contact information has been updated

The Ingram Micro consolidation center in Williamsville, NY has been closed. For US shipments destined to Ingram Micro in Mississauga, ON and in Richmond, BC vendors are to ship direct to Canada using FedEx National LTL for LTL shipments and UPS Ground for small parcel shipments (mode selection rules still apply). Vendor shipping locations in Northern and Southern California are not affected and should continue to use Concord for shipments to Ingram Micro Canada

Ingram Micro is constantly looking at ways to improve the way we do business with and for all of our partners. The changes in this routing guide and in our procedures are with the goal of facilitating efficiency across the entire channel, from your manufacturing plants to our distribution network and on through to the solution providers and end-users around the world.

Ingram Micro will make ongoing enhancements to this guide and this home page will now reflect the date of the most recent updates

Again, please take time to review the guide thoroughly. If you have any question, please contact your Ingram Micro Vendor Business Manager or send on email to Andrew Burke in our Logistics and Transportation Department.

 Sincerely,

Jeffrey N. Johnson

Vice President Logistics & Transportation
