Latest Material Handling News

As contributing editor John Schulz reports in this month’s Quarterly Transportation Market Report (page 71S), it’s a “buyer’s market” in the truckload (TL) sector at the moment.

No matter how the market shakes out over the next year, the readers of Logistics Management tell us that they have been working successfully with these 32 winners of Quest for Quality gold to streamline their supply chain operations during this topsy-turvy and unpredictable time.
