CH Robinson has strongly refuted allegations in a racketeering lawsuit brought by six US trucking companies, and confirmed that carriers within the Super Ego network are no longer part of its freight network.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company told \u041b\u043e\u0434\u0441\u0442\u0430\u0440<\/i> that the complaint mischaracterised its carrier relationships and inaccurately described testimony given by a former employee.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSuper Ego is a holding company. The specific trucking companies under their umbrella that we worked with each had individual operating authority from the US government,\u201d it said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cLike all the carriers we work with, they were each in good standing with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration at the time we worked with them. Super Ego carriers are no longer part of our network.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company did not specify when or why those relationships ended.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The response follows a complaint filed in the Eastern District of Texas on 23 September against CH Robinson entities and Total Quality Logistics (TQL).\u00a0<\/p>\n

The plaintiffs \u2013 Stevens Trucking, Western Flyer Express, Freymiller Trucking, IWX Motor Freight, Christenson Transportation and EOS \u2013\u00a0allege that the brokers won shipper business using carriers whose costs were suppressed by breaches of safety and labour rules.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They claim this enabled the brokers to offer rates compliant trucking companies could not match. The allegations have not been established in court.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Super Ego is cited extensively in the complaint as an example of the carrier networks allegedly used by the brokers, but is not a defendant.\u00a0<\/p>\n

CH Robinson also challenged paragraph 161, in which the plaintiffs describe a deposition given by former carrier-services head Bruce Johnson. The complaint attributes to him an account of the company winning shipper bids before sourcing carriers described by the plaintiffs as \u201cillegal carriers\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The company said Mr Johnson \u201csaid nothing of the sort in his deposition\u201d, adding: \u201cThat is entirely false, and nothing like that appears in the deposition.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

CH Robinson said the complaint\u2019s inaccuracies and mischaracterisations also extended to other aspects of the deposition. \u041b\u043e\u0434\u0441\u0442\u0430\u0440<\/i> has not independently verified the disputed account against the transcript.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chief legal officer Dorothy Capers rejected the lawsuit\u2019s wider portrayal of the company.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe reject the allegations in this civil lawsuit, its false characterisation of CH Robinson and our business practices, and its fundamental inaccuracies about how the freight market actually works,\u201d she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve worked hard to build a network of carriers, from the largest to the smallest, including family-run operations who\u2019ve been hauling freight for our customers for decades and grown their businesses across generations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cAll the carriers we work with are authorised by the federal government, plus meet additional safety standards and higher levels of insurance than legally required. Running a responsible company is foundational to who we are, and serving our two-sided marketplace of shippers and carriers well is why we\u2019ve been successful for 120 years.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ms Capers also disputed the complaint\u2019s account of pricing and carrier selection.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cNo freight broker sets rates. The marketplace does. When demand for carriers is high and supply is low, carriers command higher rates. When demand is low and the supply of carriers is high, shippers command lower rates,\u201d she said. \u201cThis is reflected in the rate forecasts we publish monthly and, as a publicly traded company, we report our margins quarterly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s also a myth that freight brokers merely find the lowest-priced carrier. The choice of a carrier for any shipment rides on a multitude of factors. Our process takes into account carrier proximity, size, equipment, certifications, and customer requirements ranging from sustainability to service levels.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

The trucking companies are seeking damages for alleged lost business, including treble damages under US racketeering law. They have not specified a total claim, although Freymiller identifies $51.2m in alleged lost sales across 63 customers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to defending ourselves vigorously and pursuing counterclaims supported by real facts and the law,\u201d Ms Capers said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
