TQL receives prestigious food and beverage transportation honor
Cincinnati (Oct. 8th, 2024) - Total Quality Logistics (TQL), the second largest freight brokerage in North America and one of the largest global third-party logistics firms, has earned a 2024 Top Food Chain Provider award from Food Chain Digest, the official magazine of Food Shippers of America (FSA).
TQL has overseen the movement of millions of loads of food and beverage freight and is known for a focus on food safety and compliance, customer service and access to capacity. In 2024, PepsiCo, HP Hood, US Foods, and The J.M. Smucker Company recognized the company for excellence in transportation.
"TQL started 27 years ago with a focus in produce," TQL President Kerry Byrne said. "This distinction acknowledges decades of hard work. Thank you to our customers for entrusting us with your sensitive freight."
Food Chain Digest staff evaluated the nominations. Food manufacturers, retailers and distributors voted on nominees and FSA leaders reviewed and confirmed the final list.
"As a 2024 Top Food Chain Provider named by Food Chain Digest, TQL is recognized as provider that can manage fresh, frozen or other sensitive food products through the supply chain," said Brian Everett group publisher and editorial director of the magazine. "For more than 20 years, TQL has been a resource to many food shippers that are focused on temperature sensitivity and maintaining product integrity in the shipping process."
