“With our new rebranding efforts underway, we hope to overcome the marketplace headwinds by investing in the assets that drive our business . . . people,” said Jim Craig, president of USAT Logistics. “We are aggressively developing and pursuing talent at all of our regional centers as well as our executive offices in Dallas. Matt, Randy, Tim and Caleb are all proven performers who we believe are well-qualified to help us reach our objectives. Sig and Sharon are huge additions to our team and should provide real depth and market reach.”
USAT Logistics has announced growth expectations and is expanding its service portfolio as well as market coverage.
