HJI was reorganized in 1994 and is currently owned by Wade and Alice Houston. As
an ISO 9001:2000 certified minority and woman owned business, HJI has a history
in the logistics, warehousing and material handling industry. HJI offers a
complete array of services that provide a seamless flow of products and
information across the supply chain. Our growth in the warehousing and
inter-modal arenas has given us the opportunity to become a long-term
integrated logistics partner with a variety of major companies.
HJI has the experience, knowledge and technology to ensure its competitiveness
in the world of 3rd party logistics. Houston-Johnson, Inc. is a Tier 1 supplier
to clients such as Ford Motor Company. In our experience, we have supplied
logistic services to several of the largest automotive parts suppliers, either
as a Tier 1 or Tier 2 supplier. These automotive suppliers contribute 85% of
the automotive parts to the American Big 2 and Daimler-Chrysler. Approximately
$1 billion worth of parts and materials flow through our facilities on an
annual basis. These parts include engines, transmissions, drive shafts, horns,
wheels, pcm modules and various other automotive parts which directly support
on a just-in-time broadcast and daily order fill the strenuous demands of the
daily production environment.
Our experience has been primarily focused within the automotive industry.
Through our relationship with automotive manufacturers and suppliers, we have
gained and developed skills and core competencies that are transferable to many
industries. Our experience in receiving, storing, shipping and managing a
variety of supply chain functions will enable us to meet and exceed Ford’s
expectations and perhaps introduce new ideas to help achieve company goals. It
is this type of diversity in perspectives and thought that breeds excitement
when approaching new projects.
We believe that our commitment to the overall community is shown through our
willingness to give back through our time, talent and treasures. We feel
compelled to reach out to people and areas that are under served, under
appreciated and under represented. As a certified minority-owned enterprise, we
are committed to encouraging and supporting other qualified minority-based
firms that supply value-added goods and services. Some of the products and
services purchased from minority businesses are: professional services,
consulting, transportation, revenue equipment, and fuel purchasing services,
office supplies, marketing, advertising, promotional goods, computer equipment
and supplies, communications, data and printed publications. We will always
have a community minded company that believes in sharing resources with others.
The HJI culture is centered around its people. We value the backgrounds and
input our employees offer. We work hard to provide an atmosphere where our
employees see opportunities for training, recognition and career development.
We take a proactive approach when identifying internal candidates to fill
vacant positions thereby utilizing the talent we have on-hand prior to
interviewing external candidates. By doing this we develop trust and loyalty
with our employees.
