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.
