Ryder honors top Canadian carriers
MIAMI — Kingsway Transport and Bison Transport were two top Canadian carriers honored by Ryder System.
The two trucking firms were given 2009 Ryder Carrier Quality Awards for best Canadian LTL and Canadian truckload carriers, respectively.
Vitran Express, which is headquartered in Toronto, won in the LTL Inter-Regional category.
The awards recognize excellence in on-time performance, claims handling, customer service, technology applications, economic value and innovation.
Ryder places more than $3.4 billion of its customers’ freight on selected carriers in all modes of transportation.
"In spite of last year’s challenging economy with declining freight volumes, these carriers still managed to perform above expectations and deliver exceptional service to customers," said Todd Carter, Ryder vice president and general manager of global transportation management.
