Aristeo Named Toyota’s Outstanding Business Partner for Second Time

Toyota Motor North America (TMNA) named Aristeo as its 2024 Outstanding Business Partner at its Annual Business Meeting. Toyota chose Aristeo for this prestigious designation, which Aristeo also won in 2022, out of thousands of indirect suppliers across multiple sectors.

Some of the recent strategic projects Aristeo has partnered with Toyota that led to this award include:

• Toyota Battery Manufacturing North Carolina (TBMNC): Aristeo is the primary general
  contractor for the 1,850 acre, $13.9 billion battery campus, which will expand Toyota’s hybrid
  and electric vehicle efforts.
• Toyota Motor Manufacturing Texas (TMMTX): Part of a $531 million investment, Aristeo is leading the construction of a 500,000 SF addition for drivetrain parts production at the San Antonio facility.

“We are sincerely honored and humbled to receive recognition as Toyota’s top indirect supplier in
2024,” said Michelle Aristeo Barton, Aristeo president. “I want to thank all of our incredible team
members for their hard work and daily commitment to high standards of safety, quality and customer
service. I also want to thank our customers at Toyota. Partnership is a two-way street, and throughout
our nearly 20-year business relationship, we have always been treated as a true extension of the Toyota
team.”

Aristeo has also received numerous other accolades from Toyota over the last few years, such as the
2022 Outstanding Business Partner and the Toyota Outstanding Customer Service & Management
award for proactive management and meeting customer needs through effective communication and
issue resolution.
