“The Manheim integration with Central Dispatch creates a powerful solution that helps dealers more simply and easily handle vehicle transportation,” said Jim Williams, senior vice president of logistics for Manheim. “Whether shipping a vehicle across town or across the country, dealers need a logistics company they trust. With Central Dispatch, Manheim clients can instantly tap into a vast network of carriers to meet their needs.”
