GLEN MILLS, PA – August 18, 2020 – Pilot Freight Services (Pilot), a worldwide provider of transportation and logistics services backed by ATL Partners and British Columbia Investment Management Corporation (BCI), was recently ranked among the Top 100 Third-Party Logistics Provider for 2020 by Inbound Logistics for the 11th year in a row. The ranks were compiled by Inbound Logistics editors who select the best third-party providers that help improve service, manage cost and hone execution. This is the second award Pilot has received this year from Inbound Logistics, recently being named a Top 75 Green Supply Chain Partner.
The Top 100 3PL Providers include well-known companies, niche providers and newer companies offering specialized logistics services. They are listed alphabetically to make it a solutions-based resource, rather than to rank one provider over another. Pilot was selected from more than 300 companies that demonstrate diverse services and capabilities to create custom solutions for customers that meet their supply chain and logistics needs.
“2020 has been a unique year for our industry,” says Zach Pollock, chief operating officer. “Pilot has been able to rise to the challenge by continuing to offer a full spectrum of customizable logistics solutions to manage a single aspect of transportation or complete logistics and supply chain management. Our flexibility to adapt our services is Pilot’s strength and a testament our team’s expertise.”
