Logistics Plus Recognizes 2016 National and Regional LTL Carriers of the Year

March 2, 2017
No Comments

ERIE, PA (March 2, 2017) - Logistics Plus Inc., a leading worldwide provider of transportation, logistics and supply chain solutions, recently recognized two of its less-than-truckload (LTL) carriers for superior results and performance in 2016. The annual awards were presented to the following carriers in each of two categories:

• FedEx Freight was named the 2016 Logistics Plus National LTL Carrier of the Year (UPS Freight and Estes Express were both runners up in this category)
• Dayton Freight Lines was named the 2016 Logistics Plus Regional LTL Carrier of the Year (Ward Transport & Logistics and New Penn Motor Express were both runners up in this category)

Performing as a top North American freight brokerage firm, Logistics Plus LTL services are delivered through its proprietary eShipPlus™ transportation management system (TMS) - a complimentary online platform made available to all of its LTL customers. Its annual LTL carrier awards are based on internal and external assessments of the following performance criteria:

• Annual Share of Business and Growth
• Price Competitiveness
• Service Performance
• Billing Accuracy
• Customer Service
• Account Representation

"Logistics Plus has been buying, managing, and delivering LTL services to our many customers for 20 years. Although today we provide many other logistics solutions, LTL remains one of our core offerings," said Scott Frederick, vice president of marketing and LTL carrier relations for Logistics Plus. "Having great, cooperative LTL carrier partners is critical to our LTL services program. We looked at annual performance reports, we polled our internal operations and accounting stakeholders, and we surveyed our end customers; and FedEx Freight and Dayton Freight both came out on top. I am grateful for the support we receive from all of our LTL carrier partners, but I would especially like to thank and congratulate FedEx Freight and Dayton Freight for their excellent performance in 2016."

SICK’s linear line scan camera is what dreams are made of for your logistics operations. And if you’re worried about motion and vibration from conveyor belts...well, there’s no reason...
