Greatwide Signs Multi-Year Agreement with SUPERVALU for Expanded Dedicated Contract Carriage Operations

Leading 3PL chosen to service SUPERVALU mega-center in Pennsylvania

DALLAS (September 16, 2009) – Greatwide Logistics Services, a national provider of non-asset-based transportation and third-party logistics services, announced that the company has recently expanded and renewed its Product Transportation Agreement with SUPERVALU in Pennsylvania.

SUPERVALU has been a customer of Greatwide since 2001, operating from two of the company’s Pennsylvania distribution centers. The expanded, multi-year contract will consolidate the volume from those two facilities into one mega-center. This new operation will support more than 120 trucks in the region.

“As our customers change and grow, our services must evolve to meet their needs, said Raymond Greer, CEO of Greatwide Logistics Services. As SUPERVALU’s business partner, Greatwide was tasked with optimizing dedicated contract carriage operations to fit their continually developing logistics and transportation requirements. “Because of our unique, asset-light operating model, we were able to do so in a minimal amount of time and in a way that would have been impossible if we were a traditional asset-based dedicated contract carriage provider.”

In addition to the SUPERVALU contract, Greatwide has previously secured dedicated contract carriage agreements with industry leaders in grocery retail, general retail, food service distributors, food wholesalers, and food and beverage manufacturers.
