His experience bringing end-to-end supply chain solutions to enterprise-level shippers, as well as his ability to produce operational efficiency while managing through various market conditions, will be a huge value add for NTG."

A Future with Great Promise

Newly appointed President Geoff Kelley noted, "NTG has a driven, collaborative culture that stands out in the industry and has demonstrated high growth and performance levels. I look forward to joining a team that closely aligns with my core values as a leader, driving exceptional service by leading with character and proving a strong commitment to your people. We are ready to hit the ground running."

Part of Transportation Insight Holdings, NTG operates in the Gryphon Investors portfolio alongside sister company Transportation Insight, a leading North American enterprise logistics provider. The two market-facing brands serve more than 9,000 clients with a full suite of multi-modal transportation management and supply chain solutions.

"As the transportation management marketplace continues to evolve, shippers increasingly need partners capable of delivering holistic supply chain solutions," said Paul Thompson, founder and chairman of Transportation Insight.
