    Transplace recently held its first Customer Advisory Board meeting in an effort to strengthen strategic relationships, the company said, meeting with eight customers during its annual Shipper Symposium in April.

    The Customer Advisory Board was established to give customers direct access to Transplace executives to discuss industry trends and opportunities, Transplace said.

    “With the rise of issues facing the transportation industry, it is important to have amenable communication with business partners. The Customer Advisory Board provides a great way for Transplace to sit down with its customers and discuss how they’re being affected by current issues,” said Craig Boroughf, director of transportation for USG. “This was a great environment for us to meet with Transplace executives and talk strategically about real issues.”
