Aaron Thompson has been hired as EVP of trucking for Bay & Bay Transportation. Thompson will oversee all departments related to trucking including safety, recruiting, operations, maintenance, orientation, training and fuel procurement, the company said.

“I am excited to get back into the truckload space with an organization that has a vision and appetite for growth. I love to lead in that capacity; I love all the hard working people, and the ever changing dynamics trucking throws at you every day. It's truly where my passion lies,” Thompson said.
