MINNEAPOLIS, MN--March 9, 2007--NASSTRAC announced Roadway as the recipient of its 2007 Carrier of the Year award in the National Category. The NASSTRAC Carrier of the Year award is an annual program that recognizes transportation providers on a quantitative scale in five key areas: customer service, operational excellence, pricing, business relationship, leadership and technology.
This year, NASSTRAC regular members who are qualified buyers of transportation services graded carriers they use on a 4-point scale based upon regional scope and capabilities.
"NASSTRAC has been encouraging the high performance of carriers for years through this awards program," said Terri Ferraro, director of supply chain and transportation for Famous Footwear, and NASSTRAC's current provider relations chairperson. "NASSTRAC leverages this annual awards program to continually promote performance excellence in the transportation industry."
Roadway was recognized at the 2007 NASSTRAC Logistics Conference & Expo that took place May 6-9 in Orlando, FL.
The NASSTRAC Carrier of the Year program is co-sponsored by Logistics Management, a leading trade magazine for buyers of logistics services.
