Mitas is overall winner of the CLAAS Supplier of the Year Awards, 2014. Major farm equipment manufacturer CLAAS awarded tyre maker Mitas as best supplier for its outstanding development partnership, an excellent cooperation during recent years and active participation in logistics and lesser development projects. The gala event took place in January in Harsewinkel, Germany. Mitas won the award from among 900 serial part suppliers.
“Being the best overall supplier of CLAAS for the year 2014 is a big honour. We will do our best to confirm this position also in the year 2015 to show our partners in CLAAS that we deserve and esteem this award,” said Jaroslav Cechura, Mitas’ CEO. “The Total Winner award is a continuation of our successes within the CLAAS Supplier Award. In 2011, we were awarded CLAAS Supplier of the Year for Innovation (development of the CHO tyre) and in 2006 for Logistics."
“Mitas is a leader in the supplier group of tyres at CLAAS and has shown excellent supplier evaluation during the past few years. For these reasons, we awarded Mitas as a Total Winner of our Supplier Award in 2014,” said Hans Lampert, CLAAS’s group executive vice president of finance and controlling.
