RUAN
Founded 1932 | North America | Asset & Non-Asset Based
Despite an ongoing, critical national shortage of truck drivers, Ruan has managed to find and retain the most valuable resource in over-the-road transportation. Consider that of the company’s 5,200 employees, 4,200 are drivers. Those drivers have access to managers who direct individuals and fleets from the company’s 270 sites nationwide. That has a lot to do with the company having an astounding 99.8 on-time delivery rate while enjoying a driver turnover rate that’s just one-fifth of the industry average. ruan.com

It recently signed the largest industrial lease in the Midwest when it agreed to relocate its Illinois operations to a new, 1.1-million-square-foot, build-to-suit facility in Joliet. Worked by more than 250 employees, the space will nearly double Saddle Creek’s Midwest footprint. sclogistics.com
