Averitt Honored With Three Quest For Quality Awards

Logistics Management, one of the most widely read publications in our industry, has released its annual Quest for Quality awards, and we were honored in three categories! No other carrier won more than three awards, so thank you for your efforts that help us remain a transportation leader! Our Quest for Quality recognition featured two first-place honors and a second-place nod: The results are in, and our team continues to be at the top of the class in the transportation industry.

The process for determining the Quest for Quality awards was an extensive one, as more than 3,175 shippers were surveyed. To earn an honor for each category, a carrier had to rank above the average scores for all carriers. A closer look at our recognition shows just how strong our performance was. In Truckload, we had the highest score in four out of six categories – on- time performance, information technology, customer service and overall. And in Expedited, we were the leader in all six metrics! Our strength in the transportation industry is evident today, and it’s also part of a long-term track record for success. This year marked the 26th consecutive year we’ve earned a Quest for Quality award. Overall, no other carrier in the South has won more Quest for Quality honors than Averitt!

FROM GARY SASSER PG. 1 – we have the best people, the best solutions and the best team. You make that happen, and I’m grateful for your efforts. Our focus on helping people goes way beyond moving freight; the Averitt Cares for Kids Family Softball Tournament and Scott Wolf Memorial Golf Tournament are great reminders of that. By supporting the good works of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital and the Scott Wolf Memorial Scholarship Fund, we’re helping cure childhood cancers and providing educational assistance to our associates and their families. In the next few months, the holidays will also bring

many opportunities to make a difference through the ongoing Team Up Community Challenge . I look forward to seeing how associates from across our network serve our communities. Everything we do comes back to our Winner’s Circle – when we take care of Our Customers by delivering innovative and creative solutions, we’re able to invest in Our Associates and provide the best quality of life possible on the job. And by doing those things, we secure Our Future for years to come!
