Alliance Shippers Inc. Awarded 20th Win in National Survey

Englewood Cliffs, NJ — Alliance Shippers Inc.,a leading provider of global logistics services, announced that it has received a prestigious industry award for quality service and customer satisfaction.

Alliance Shippers Inc. is the winner of the Gold Medal for Intermodal Marketing Companies in Logistics Management Magazine’s Quest for Quality survey of transportation and logistics services providers. The award is the culmination of a six-month research project conducted by Peerless Research Group.

“We are honored to receive the 2020 Quest for Quality award. It recognizes our top-to-bottom approach to customer service,” said Jonathan Lefcourt, President and CEO of Alliance Shippers Inc. “It proves that our commitment to premium transportation and logistics solutions are appreciated by our customers.”

For more than three decades, Logistics Management’s Quest for Quality has been regarded in the transportation and logistics industry as the most important measure of customer satisfaction and performance excellence. With this year’s award, Alliance Shippers Inc. has achieved this recognition 20 times.

“Quest for Quality Awards are uniquely purposeful in our market because the winners are determined by our readers — the buyers of logistics and transportation services who put these carriers and service providers to work on a daily basis all over the world,” said Michael Levans, Group Editorial Director of Peerless Media, LLC, the publisher of Logistics Management.

About the Quest for Quality Award
To determine the best of the best, Logistics Management readers — logistics, transportation and supply chain decision makers — rate carriers, third-party logistics (3PL) service providers and U.S. port operators strictly on the basis of service quality. One of the most notable elements about the Quest for Quality Awards is that it calls these shippers to vote in the genre of services they actually use; in turn, they vote for the providers that they think have best delivered on quality service in specific niches.

Englewood Cliffs, NJ — Alliance Shippers Inc., a leading provider of global logistics services, is recognized as a 2020 Top 100 3PL Provider by Inbound Logistics’.

When choosing the 2020 Top 100 3PL Providers, Inbound Logistics editors looked for providers who offer the visibility, flexibility, speed and control that drive the supply chain solutions our audience needs to achieve their goals and meet customers’ evolving needs.

TOP 100 SELECTION METHODOLOGY
Inbound Logistics’ Top 100 3PL Provider’s list serves as a qualitative assessment of service providers we feel are best equipped to meet and surpass our audience’s evolving outsourcing needs. Distilling the Top 100 is never an easy task, and the process becomes increasingly difficult as more 3PLs enter the market and service providers from other functional areas develop value-added logistics capabilities.

IL editors selected this year’s class of Top 100 3PLs from a pool of more than 300 companies.

Alliance Shippers Inc. Honored as Green Supply Chain Partner Once Again

Englewood Cliffs, NJ — Alliance Shippers Inc., a leading provider of global logistics services, has been selected by Inbound Logistics Magazine as a 2020 Green Supply Chain Partner. Alliance Shippers Inc. has received this honor yearly since 2013.

“We are constantly striving to move in the direction of clean, green transportation solutions,” said Larry Henry, VP of Logistics & Special Projects at Alliance Shippers Inc., “and this honor is a testament to that sustainable mindset.”

Alliance Shippers Inc. recently added 100 energy-efficient 53’ refrigerated containers to increase its fleet to nearly 1,700 CARB-compliant trailers. Our fleet will be a total of 1,800 between refrigerated trailers and refrigerated containers. This purchase included refrigeration units with electric standby. This technology allows units to be plugged in to an electric source while sitting in a yard or at a dock. This reduces the need to power the refrigeration unit with “diesel power”.

Applying these advanced technologies to its refrigerated fleet allows Alliance Shippers Inc. to move customer cargo using the nation’s railroad system, which reduces CO² emissions by approximately 67% when compared to transporting those same goods via highway trucks.

Those selected for Inbound Logistics’ annual G75, a curated list of 75 companies, “go above and beyond to help shippers maintain sustainable, eco-friendly supply chain operations,” according to the publication. “These companies have spent years developing and implementing best practices to ensure the footprint they leave on the world is a positive one.”
