C.H. Robinson Global Newsroom

Forbes’ 2025 ranking of America’s Best Employers by State is based on surveys of 169,000+ employees at companies with at least 500 U.S. workers. Respondents rated their employers on a 0–10 scale and evaluated factors like pay, equity, culture, career growth, and responsiveness to serious issues. C.H. Robinson ranked 10th among the best companies to work for in Minnesota.

“We’ve seen customers that are having to bring that inventory into their own distribution centers, and they’re having to have to carry that cost,” said Mike Short, president of Global Forwarding at C.H. Robinson. “But whether that (warehouse costs) gets passed on to the end consumer or not, is really spread across the board, and that also goes with tariffs.”

Executives credited artificial intelligence in part for market share gains. “The faster speed provided by our AI has enabled us to respond to more quotes and win more business, thereby augmenting our market share growth,” Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer Arun Rajan told investors on a July 30 earnings call. C.H. Robinson’s proprietary AI is powering its pricing and costing operations.
