Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) has launched the second edition of its internet-based TCA Supplier Directory, featuring industry-specific product and service listings for the trucking community.

The 2009 edition of the guide includes Request for Information (RFI) functionality and a downloadable search application, TCA said. Supplier companies will have the option to purchase a company listing, direct website hyperlink, e-mail-generation capacity and videos, the group added.

"During these tough economic times, the TCA Supplier Directory really has become a critical resource for carriers," said TCA president Chris Burruss. "It showcases suppliers who actively support our community through their dues and sponsorships, and I'm proud to post them to our site."
