Shenandoah Growers grows fleet
Shenandoah Growers says its logistics services business grew by nearly 170% in 2019, prompting the purchase of an additional 15 dual-temperature trailers for its fleet.
The company said the expanded capacity makes access to controlled-temperature transport easier and more readily available. Shenandoah Growers Logistics specializes in handling unique transportation needs for products in categories like produce, food service and floral products, requiring diverse temperature control for different items on the same trailer in order to maintain product integrity and quality.
“Since inception, our goal has been to offer refrigerated LTL logistics services on Shenandoah Growers private fleet that is distinctive and affordable alternative compared to other carriers in the industry,” said Jeffrey Saunders, vice president of logistics. “We will continue build a robust refrigerated LTL network to offer an elite standard of service excellence.
“To accomplish this, we are adding drivers and equipment that will empower us to expand the reach of our market to even more customers across the country.”
Additionally, the company says it added service points and lanes throughout its system as it continues to expand. Shenadoah Logistics serves US customers in the Southeast, Middle/North Atlantic and portions of the Midwest from six facilities.
